Create delicious and crispy tortilla bowls perfect for holding your favorite taco salad ingredients.
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
Preheating ensures the tortillas bake evenly and become crispy.
Line a baking sheet with foil and place two empty food cans on it, spaced apart.
Using foil prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
Fill a pizza pan with warm water and add olive oil, stirring to combine.
The olive oil helps the tortillas crisp up while baking.
Quickly dip a tortilla into the water mixture, then let it drain slightly.
Don't soak the tortilla for too long to avoid it becoming too soft.
Drape the tortilla over a food can, shaping it into a bowl.
Position the tortilla slightly off-center for a more dramatic shape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 4-5 minutes until lightly browned and firm.
Keep an eye on the tortillas to prevent over-browning.
Carefully remove the tortilla bowl from the can and place it upright on the baking sheet.
Use oven mitts to handle the hot tortilla bowls safely.
Return to the oven and bake for an additional 2-3 minutes until crisp.
This step ensures the bowls are fully crisped and ready to hold fillings.
Let the tortilla bowls cool on a rack before serving.
Cooling helps the bowls set their shape and become sturdier.
