    I adore crunchy tacos. I mean, what's not to love, right? These are like little taco cupcakes and they taste amazing!

    Taco Wontons are a great way to use leftover taco-seasoned beef. Grab all your favorite taco toppings and get ready for these delicious crunchy taco cups.

    Personally, I usually double this taco wonton recipe because my family gobbles up these all up when I make them for Taco Tuesday.

    🍲 Storage

    To Store: While Taco Wonton Cups are best enjoyed right away, they can be stored in an airtight container for 3-4 days. (These are my favorite airtight containers.)

    To Reheat: Microwave individual portions in 30-second intervals until heated throughout.
