From Family Fun. I adapted it a bit. Great for lunch boxes. Change the amount of seasoning based on your or your kids' preference. I also have a Chili Powder recipe that could be used in place of the storebought package. UPDATE: We finally tried this. These would be great for lunchboxes. Also great for getting extras, like onions, pepper, etc. in the kids. I had 20 oz. meat, added a little dried minced onion and bell pepper and used just under 1/2 C per roll. It ended up making 9 rolls. All but 1 child liked it (my picky one). Ingredients:
1 lb lean ground turkey or 1 lb lean ground beef |
0.5 (1 1/4 ounce) package taco seasoning mix |
1/2 cup water |
1/2 cup corn |
1 (16 ounce) can refried beans |
6 (10 inch) flour tortillas |
1/2 cup salsa |
3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese or 3/4 cup shredded monterey jack cheese or 3/4 cup mexican blend cheese |
Directions:
1. Crumble the ground beef into a large skillet and brown over medium-high heat.
2. When the meat is cooked (about 10 minutes), drain the fat.
3. Add the taco seasoning, water, and corn; stir and simmer the mixture for 3 minutes.
4. Turn off the heat and stir in the refried beans.
5. To give the filling a smooth consistency, pour the beef mixture into a blender or food processor. With 4 or 5 short pulses, eliminate any large chunks from the mix.
6. For each wrap, heat a tortilla in the microwave for 10 seconds.
7. Spread about 1/2 cup of the beef mixture evenly over it, then top with a layer of salsa and cheese. Roll it up and tuck in the ends.
8. Tightly cover each sandwich in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Cut in half at serving time. Or cut into 1 inch slices for appetizers.
