Ingredients
Cheesy Shell
- 1 Cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese For the main cheesy shell.
- 1 Cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese Adds stretchiness to the shell.
- 1/2 Cup Grated Parmesan Enhances flavor and texture.
Filling
- 1/2 lb Ground Beef Main protein for the filling.
- 1/4 Cup Minced Onion Adds flavor to the beef.
- 1/2 Tsp Chili Powder Spice for seasoning.
- 1/2 Tsp Paprika Adds color and subtle heat.
- 1 Tsp Cumin Boosts flavor profile.
- 1/2 Tsp Onion Powder For enhanced onion flavor.
- 1/2 Tsp Garlic Powder Adds aromatic flavor.
- 1/2 Tsp Salt To taste.
Instructions
Preparation
- Brown the ground beef with the minced onion in a skillet over medium heat. Once cooked through, mix cumin, chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder, and salt in a cup with some water, then pour it over the browned beef and let it simmer for 5-10 minutes.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cheddar, mozzarella, and grated parmesan cheeses. Divide into six equal portions, forming balls, and place on a parchment-paper-lined baking sheet.
- Bake at 400°F for 6-8 minutes, or until edges are golden brown.
Assembly
- After baking, let the cheese cool for 1-2 minutes and flip each puffy shell upside down.
- Spoon some seasoned beef onto the edge of each shell and roll tightly into a cigar shape.
- Work quickly to prevent the cheese from hardening.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. For longer storage, freeze them wrapped tightly to prevent freezer burn.
