Tasty Tortilla Bowls


SPICY MAMA

We love love love spicy food in our house and are always on the look out for new ideas, from serving inspiration to recipes. I thought I would introduce you to one of my absolute favourite kitchen items which are these fantastic tortilla bowls! Edible crockery, the dream is real.


If you follow my health account on Instagram, you'll have no doubt seen these pop up from time to time and they are always well received, looking amazing on the plate!


I'm always getting asked about these bowls, where they are from, how they work etc etc etc, so here we are, my little spicy secrets in all their glory. For starters, I got mine from Amazon for a bargain price (under £5 a set!) just like these ones. These usually come in a set of four and are very good quality non stick pans.

We use plain tortillas but you could use any kind and even spray them with a little oil and rub on some flavouring if you want to experiment. What would you serve in yours?


To make the bowls it's so easy! You simply pop a tortilla into the metal mold and push into place. Next you just need to pop them in the oven as per the instructions for your oven type, and wait just a matter of minutes depending on how crispy you would like your tortillas to be. The crispier the better for me!



Once these are ready, you can get to work filling them with all your favourite family meals. Our favourites are spicy chicken with grilled peppers/onions, or just a simple classic chilli and rice. The saucier the meal, the more flavour and juices the tortilla will absorb, making it even better to eat after your meal!

Eating the bowl, it's a dream come true isn't it?



Why don't you have a go at these yourself for a slightly different family meal, you could use these for so many things. It's time to get creative!
