Tarantula Tostadas (Or Tacos)

• 4 tostadas (bowls) or 4 taco shells (Old El Paso Stand 'n Stuff shells)
• 1 lb lean ground beef (at least 80%)
• 1 (1 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
• 2/3 cup water
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (4 oz)
• 1 1/2 cups shredded lettuce
• 1 medium tomatoes, chopped (3/4 cup)
• 1/4 cup sour cream
• 20 extra-large pitted black ripe olives (whichever is largest) or 20 jumbo black olives (whichever is largest)

1. Heat oven to 325u0b0F.
2. Heat tostada or taco shells in oven as directed on box, usually just a couple of minutes.
3. In a 10-inch skillet, cook ground beef over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until beef is thoroughly cooked; drain.
4. Stir in taco seasoning mix and water.
5. Reduce heat to medium and cook uncovered about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until water has evaporated. Remove from heat.
6. Spoon beef mixture into heated tostada or taco shells. Top with cheese, lettuce and tomato.
7. Spoon sour cream into small resealable food-storage plastic bag. Seal bag; cut VERY tiny hole in corner of bag. Pipe sour cream over top of each taco to resemble spider web.
8. For each spider, top taco with 1 olive, pitted end down. Cut second olive lengthwise into 8 pieces; place around whole olive for legs. For eyes, squeeze 2 dots of sour cream onto top of olive.
9. BOO!
