The Ingredients
10 Tostitos Baked! Scoops
1/4 cup finely shredded romaine lettuce
2 tablespoons finely chopped tomatoes
1/2 ounce (about 2 1/2 tablespoons) finely shredded Cabot's 75% light Cheddar cheese, or your favorite low-fat Cheddar
1 teaspoon lower-sodium taco seasoning
2 ounces 96% lean ground beef
1 tablespoon mild or hot red taco sauce
How To Make It
Arrange the Scoops side by side on a plate.
In a medium bowl, mix the lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese until well combined. Divide evenly among the Scoops (about 1 1/2 teaspoons per Scoop)
In a small bowl, stir 2 tablespoons water into the taco seasoning until it has no lumps. Set aside.
Preheat a small nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Put in the beef. Use a wooden spoon to coarsely crumble the meat as it cooks. When the beef is no longer pink, after about 1 to 2 minutes, stir in the seasoning mixture. When no liquid remains, after about 1 minute, remove from the heat. Divide the meat evenly among the Scoops atop the lettuce mixture (about 1 teaspoon in each).
Dollop the top of each with taco sauce.
Serve immediately.
Makes 10 tacos or 1 serving.
