Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 12 cup muffin pan with olive oil cooking spray.
Step 2
Use a biscuit cutter to out 3 ½-4 inch circles from your tortillas. You can eyeball it too and use a scissors, but you will most likely get 3 tortilla rounds from each tortilla. Place tortilla rounds in each muffin liner.
Step 3
Add olive oil to a medium pan and place over medium-high heat. Add in minced garlic, diced plantains, and diced jalapeno. Season with salt and pepper. Saute for 5-8 minutes until onion is tender.
Step 4
Remove from heat and stir in BUSH’S® Chili Beans. Divide the plantain chili bean mixture evenly between tortilla cups.
Step 5
Bake for 10-15 minutes, then remove and sprinkle shredded cheese on top. Bake for 3-5 minutes so that cheese melts.
Step 6
While taco cups are baking, mash 1 ripe avocado in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper and a little fresh lime juice. Mash together until well combined.
Step 7
Top each taco cup with your mashed avocado and a sprinkle of cilantro. Add a little hot sauce on top if you’d like! Makes 12 taco cups.
