Provolone Taco Shells

Ingredients:
Round Provolone Cheese slices
...(I bought mine at Costco-BelGioioso Cheese Slice Mild Provolone Cheese)
Garlic powder
Mexican Spices

Oven 375 degrees

Place Parchment paper on a cookie sheet....Spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray. Evenly space 3 slices of Provolone Cheese on the parchment.. Sprinkle lightly with garlic powder and Mexican spices.... I used a salt-free Mexican seasoning blend, from "The Spice Hunter", bought at my local Co-op.....Bake for 9-10 minutes until color is right...Then, I immediately picked up each shell with a straight edged spatula and place over the edge of a foil thickened edge of a pan to cool....you must do this quickly so they won't crack as they cool quickly and harden.....
Now fill these with taco fillings!.... Yummy!
