Tortilla Bowls

  • 4 large Whole-wheat tortillas
  • Olive oil
  • 4 15-ounce cans

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place a small dish of water on the kitchen counter. To make the tortilla bowls, place four empty 15-ounce cans, open side down, on a baking pan. Using a pastry brush, soften the tortillas by brushing both sides with a little water, and then brush with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil.

Drape the tortillas over the cans and bake until firm, about 5 to 7 min. Using tongs, turn the tortilla bowls right-side up, discard the cans, and continue to bake until golden and crisp, another 4 min. Let cool.

Place the tortilla bowls right side up on plates and fill each with a handful of greens. Divide the shrimp mixture between the tortilla bowls and top with a sprinkle of feta. Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve with lime wedges.
