Ingredients

Toppings (pick any/combination you like)
1/2 cup Sour cream
1/2 cup Salsa
1/2 cup Guacamole
1/2 cup Roast corn
Iceberg lettuce chiffonade
chopped jalapenos (canned)
One bite nachos
12 corn tortilla
1/2 cup cups Refried beans
1/2-3/4 cups Shredded Cheese (Taco or Mexican blend)
Oil for brushing

Directions

1

Preheat oven to 350 F. Wrap the tortilla in a damp kitchen towel & warm them in a microwave. Using a 2 inch diameter biscuit cutter, cut two circles. from each tortilla. Using a 1 inch cutter place in the center as a guide, make 4- 6 1/2 inch incisions (like the spokes of a wheel).
2

Brush the inner surface of the muffin pans with canola oil..Place these tortilla circles into the cups, arranging the cut 'petals' like the flaps of a paper pinwheel. Brush with oil and layer with 1/2 a teaspoon of shredded cheese. (this melts & forms a barrier against any moisture seeping thru the tortilla). place a 1/2 teaspoon dollop of refried beans and sprinkle with more cheese.
3

Bake in the oven for about 15-25 min until the cheese has melted and the tortilla has crisped up and the flaps 'curl' inwards .
4

Remove from oven, cool slightly and smother with any toppings of your choice.
