Stages of cooking
-
Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Combine spices in a small bowl and stir to mix. Cook ground beef in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. When beef is almost done cooking, add spice mixture and stir to coat completely. Remove from heat and set aside.
-
Arrange Cheddar cheese slices on lined baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven for 5 minutes or until starting to brown. Allow to cool for 3 minutes, then peel from baking sheet and transfer each slice to the well of a muffin tin, forming a cup. Allow to cool.
-
Scoop equal amounts of meat into each cup and top with 1 tablespoon of salsa. Sprinkle cilantro and hot sauce on top.
