DIY Tortilla Bowls - Here's a recipe and video tutorial for a quick and easy way to make your own delicious and fun-to-eat tortilla shells! Fill with your favorite toppings and crunch crunch crunch away!
I have a special surprise for you today! This post is more than just a regular recipe post...it is a video tutorial! It is a short video, so it won't be a huge time commitment, and the background music is peppy and fun. I hope you will take a look!
While I think the video is helpful to get a visual on how I made these, you might also want a recipe you can print to keep in your recipe box, so I included that below as well.
And coming soon...I will be posting a really tasty recipe that uses these bowls, so stay tuned! The kids LOVE food in edible bowls. They are just fun!
Some people like to use the space between the muffin cups, which produces a very pretty, curvy, and more structured cup. I like to drape them over the top because it give me a wider base to fill and the cups all come out looking somewhat different!

Great video! Your oven is so much cleaner than mine! This is such a handy tip, I love making taco bowl like this!

Haha, I cheated and got a new oven a couple of years ago. The old one was not nearly as clean! 🙂

Ah what a great video and what a good idea to do one like this if filming is a bit of an issue - which it is for me. Fun and informative - well done.
Kristin King
Thanks Choclette! Yeah, this is easier than filming, and a good place to start to learn how to edit videos and upload to YouTube and all that.
