Ingredients
- 1/2 lb fresh chorizo sausage, casing removed
- 1 (14.5-oz) can petite diced tomatoes, drained
- 1 (8.5-oz) package precooked, seasoned red beans and rice
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 30 pre-made mini filo cups
- 1-1/2 cups extra sharp cheddar cheese
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Cook and crumble the chorizo over medium heat in a large skillet. Drain. Return the sausage to the pan and add the tomatoes, red beans and rice, salt, and pepper. Cook the filling until heated through, about 5 minutes.
Place the filo cups onto a baking sheet. Fill each cup with about 1-1/2 to 2 teaspoons of filling. Top each cup with cheese and bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the cheese has melted. Serve immediately.
This is another February Easy, 5-Ingredient Recipe…and again, we’re not counting salt and pepper. I think you’ll love how quickly this dish comes together—and how many little appetizers one recipe makes. A quick note about the filo cups…you should be able to find those in the freezer section of your grocery store. If you can’t find them, the scoop-style tortilla chips work just as nicely.
