directions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Crumple 4 sheets of Reynolds Wrap into 4 LOOSE balls, each about 4-5 inches in diameter (about the size of a softball). Place the balls onto a cookie sheet.
  • On a separate sheet of Reynolds Wrap, place three biscuits in a circle, overlapping each biscuit slightly. With fingertips, pat biscuits into an 8-inch circle. Repeat, forming four biscuit circles.
  • Drape each biscuit circle over one of the foil balls. Bake in oven for 8-10 minutes. Remove and cool. (Can be prepared 1-2 days ahead).
  • Meanwhile, heat oil in pan, and sauté onions with ground beef. Brown ground beef. Drain. Return to pan and add taco seasoning, and water. Bring to boil, and simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Invert biscuit shells onto plates.
  • Add shredded lettuce, divide ground beef between shells. Add 1/4 cup black beans to each serving. Divide remaining ingredients among servings. Serve with salsa, if desired.
