Ingredients

  • 4 flour tortillas (8 inches)
  • 1 envelope taco seasoning, divided
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/3 cup chopped onion
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables
  • 1 can (16 ounces) chili beans, undrained
  • 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes with mild green chilies, undrained
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar
  • Canned pasteurized cheddar cheese snack

Method

  • Spritz tortillas with cooking spray; sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon taco seasoning. With a 2-1/2-in. round cookie cutter, cut out four circles from each tortilla (discard scraps). Cut a slit into the center of eight circles; shape each into a cone and secure with toothpicks.
  • Place circles and cones on an ungreased
  • . Bake at 400° for 8-10 minutes or until crisp.
  • Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in the water, vegetables, beans, tomatoes, sugar and remaining taco seasoning. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes or until heated through, stirring occasionally.
  • Discard toothpicks. To assemble hats, place cones on circles; pipe a band of cheese around base of cones. Ladle soup into bowls and top with hats.
