Chili Cups

Every once in a while you need to jazz up your food a little bit right? And that’s what canned biscuits are for! I’ve always wanted to try cooking biscuits this way but was afraid it would be a big fat flop but guess what? It wasn’t at all! It was pretty fun actually. I made a small pot of chili then baked the biscuits on the backside of my muffin tin and voila! Little bread bowls! So fun! You gotta try ‘em!

Chili Cups

1 pound ground beef

1 small onion ~ diced

1 package chili mix

1 14-ounce petite diced tomatoes

1 cup salsa

Salt and pepper to taste

1 8-count package Grands Refrigerated Biscuits

In a large skillet, saute the onion in a little olive oil for about 5 minutes.

Add the ground beef and cook through.

Add the chili mix, canned tomatoes and salsa.

Simmer for 15 minutes.

Spray the backside of a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.

Unwrap and separate biscuits and press flat to about a 4” circle.

Form the flattened biscuits over every other inverted cup so that the dough is not touching. (You may have to cook in batches. )

Cook according to package directions until golden brown.

Allow to cool for a few minutes then remove from the tin.

Fill with chili mixture.

Add cheese, salsa, sour cream, etc.

Let's have some fun with our food!

Saute the onions a bit then

other inverted muffin cup.
