Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 ½ tsp olive oil
½ lb lean ground beef
1 tbsp taco seasoning
¾ cup canned black beans, drained and rinsed
16 wonton wrappers
5 1/3 tbsp queso dip or salsa con queso
1 cup chunky salsa
1 cup Mexican cheese, shredded

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375º. Lightly mist 8 cups in a muffin tin with cooking spray and set aside. Heat oil in a saute pan or large skillet over medium-high heat, add the ground beef and taco seasoning and brown beef, breaking it with a spoon. Add black beans and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for a few minutes until warm. Push a wonton wrapper into the bottom of each of the eight sprayed cups in the muffin tin. Spoon a tsp of queso dip into each wonton wrapper and spread across the bottom. Follow by spooning some of the meat mixture into each cup (about 2 tsp) and then spooning a tbsp or so of salsa on top of that. Sprinkle a pinch of the cheese evenly over the top of each cup. Repeat. Press another wonton wrapper on top and repeat the layering steps with the remaining ingredients. Just press around the edges, as if you are putting on the top of a pie. Bake for 18 - 20 minutes until golden brown. Let cool for 5 minutes before removing from muffin tin.
