I first made these trying to stuff the tortillas in the muffin pans cups, but then my wonderful husband sent me this picture on google+:
That is how I’m going to make them next time! I can’t wait to try it out so we are having them again right away! I used Mission Artisan Style Ancient Grains Tortillas for our taco salads their nutrition facts are: 100 cal 3 fat 18 carbs 3 protein 3 fiber per shell. That way I hope you can compare your tortillas and count your calories accordingly.

Yum!! I’ll have to try that one out. I’m on Weight Watchers and found that that entire thing is 9 points. Great for a quick meal! Add in some veggies on the side if still hungry (0 points) and it’s definitely a healthy one. Thanks for sharing!
Hey thanks for letting me know the points on this. I don’t do weight watchers but I know others who do and I’m sure they will appreciate it!

I actually like salad and taco but I am not sure how they will taste together…
That is BRILLIANT! I love this idea! I have to try this out myself. We have a serious taco addiction in my house, switching up to taco salads once in a while is a good idea!
