Ingredients
- 4 pieces Flour tortillas (8-10 inch)
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil or cooking spray
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Lightly brush each tortilla with olive oil or spray with cooking spray on both sides. This will help them crisp up during baking.
Step 3
If desired, sprinkle a pinch of salt evenly over the tortillas for extra flavor.
Step 4
Find oven-safe bowls or ramekins that are about 5-6 inches in diameter. They will act as the molds for shaping the tortilla bowls.
Step 5
Flip the bowls upside down on a baking sheet. Drape one tortilla over each bowl, pressing it gently around the edges to form the bowl shape. The tortilla should mimic the shape of the inverted bowl.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the tortillas are golden brown and crisp. Check them around the 10-minute mark to prevent over-browning.
Step 7
Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the tortillas cool for a couple of minutes while still on the bowls. This will help them retain their shape.
Step 8
Once slightly cooled, gently lift the tortilla bowls off the molds. Handle them carefully as they may be fragile.
Step 9
Your tortilla salad bowl shells are now ready to serve! Fill them with your favorite salad, taco fillings, or dips, and enjoy.
