# How-To Steps:
01 - Preheat oven to 400°F. Brush both sides of each tortilla with vegetable oil. Drape each tortilla over an upside-down oven-safe bowl or ramekin on a baking sheet to form bowl shape. Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden and crisp. Let cool and carefully remove from molds.
02 - Heat large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking up with spoon. Drain excess fat. Add chopped onion and garlic; sauté 2-3 minutes until softened. Stir in chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook 1 more minute. Remove from heat.
03 - In large mixing bowl, combine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, black beans, corn, red onion, and avocado. Toss gently to distribute evenly.
04 - Place each tortilla bowl on plate. Fill with salad mixture, then top with warm beef mixture. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar. Add salsa and sour cream. Garnish with cilantro and serve with lime wedges.
