Tips for Making Taco Cups with Biscuits
- Learn how to make biscuit cups.
- Don’t skip seasoning the taco meat! Use a good taco seasoning mix or homemade blend to give the meat full flavor.
- Don’t overfill the cups with meat, as it can overflow during baking. Leave a little space at the top for cheese and other toppings.
- Add cheese on top of the taco meat before baking. It will melt beautifully into the cups and hold everything together. You can mix cheddar, Monterey Jack, or your favorite cheese for variety.
- After baking, top the taco cups with fresh ingredients like sour cream, lettuce, diced tomatoes, salsa, or avocado. These toppings add a nice freshness and crunch.
- Make them your own by swapping ground beef for chicken, turkey, or even a vegetarian filling like black beans or quinoa.
