Ingredients:

6        (6-inch diameter) flour tortillas

3        cups shredded iceberg or romaine lettuce

1        cup diced Cheddar or Monterey Jack Cheese

1        cup canned lack beans, drained and rinsed

1        cup halved grape tomatoes

Honey-Lime Dressing

1/4    cup fresh lime juice

1/4    cup olive oil

2        tablespoons honey

2        tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro

1/4    teaspoon coarse salt

Directions:

Heat the oven to 375 degrees.  Set six 6-ounce custard cups unside down on a baking sheet.  Cover the tortillas with a damp paper towel and microwave them until they are pliable (about 30 seconds).  Working with one tortilla at a  time, lightly coat both sides with cooking spray and then place each one over a cup.  Gently press the tortilla edges against the cup.

Bake the tortillas until they are light golden brown (about 8 to 10 minutes).  Remove the baked tortillas from the cups and place them upright on serving plates.

Toss together the lettuce, cheese, beans and tomatoes in a large bowl.

In a medium bowl, whisk together all the dressing ingredients.  Add the dressing to the large bowl and toss the mixture well.

Spoon the salad into the taco cups just before eating.  Serves 6.
