Can I Substitute Corn Tortillas?
You can use corn tortillas, but the shells will be smaller since corn tortillas are typically sold in smaller sizes. Wrap the tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave for 30 seconds to soften them up. Spray both sides with oil and shape the tortillas over the back of a muffin tin. Bake at 350˚F for 12-15 minutes or until they turn crisp and golden.
Can I double the recipe?
Absolutely! You can make as many or as few as you like, but keep in mind you’ll need enough bowls and oven space to bake them. If you’re doubling the recipe, it’s best to fry and bake them in batches.
What kind of oven-safe dishes can I use?
I used various different-sized bowls, including a measuring cup, to mold the tortilla shells. I prefer using a 3-4 cup bowl, such as an oven-safe Pyrex bowl, preferably with a flatter base to prevent the salad from easily tipping over on your plate. If you don’t have four oven-proof bowls, you can bake these in batches.
