Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a mini muffin tin with cooking spray if you are not using pre-made pastry shells.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
Stir in the taco seasoning and 2 tablespoons of water. Mix well and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Place your pre-made pastry shells or phyllo cups on a baking sheet, or press your homemade pastry into the greased mini muffin tin.
Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the seasoned ground beef into each shell or cup.
Add a pinch of shredded cheddar cheese on top of the beef in each cup.
Carefully pour the egg mixture over the beef and cheese, filling each cup approximately 3/4 full.
Top each mini quiche with chopped tomatoes and a sprinkle of green onions.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the egg filling is set and the tops are lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and cool slightly before serving.
Garnish with additional green onions or serve with salsa or sour cream for extra flavor, if desired.
