Preparation:
In bowl, break up beef with fork. Mix in 1/4 cup of
the salsa, chili powder, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/54 tsp
pepper. Divide into 8 portions. Place in muffin cups.
Press centre of each to form well 3/4 inch deep and
1-1/2 inches wide. Bake in 400F oven for 10 minutes
or until firm to the touch and no longer pink. Combine
beans and reamining salsa. Spoon into wells. Sprinkle
with cheese. Bake for 7-8 minutes or until beans are
hot and cheese has melted. Using two forks, remove
from muffin cups.
This is a fun dish kids will enjoy. Beans and salsa
cupped in ground beef muffins and baked under melting
cheese. Start the meal preparation by putting potatoes
in the oven while you assemble the muffins, then as
the muffins bake, grate carrots for a slaw. |
