CRISPY SOUTHWEST WRAP

-
Crispy Southwest Wraps are one of our go-to, easy meals. They take less than 30-minutes and my family loves them!

If your house is anything like mine, then the week before Thanksgiving is crazy busy, and the last thing I have time to do is think of a dinner plan early in the week while I’m preparing to host Thanksgiving dinner.

Easy meals–we’re talking 30-minutes or less– are my life savers! And meals that my kids will eat happily, without force, are essential!

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 Tablespoons water
  • 15 ounce can black beans , drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup frozen corn , thawed
  • 1/2 red bell pepper , chopped
  • 1 green onion , chopped
  • 1 cup cooked rice (leftover rice works great!), white, brown, rice pilaf, wild rice
  • 1 1/2 cups freshly shredded cheddar cheese (or Monterey or pepperjack)
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 6-8 large flour tortillas
Instructions
  1. Add the ground beef to a large skillet over medium heat.  Cook and crumble until browned. Drain grease. 
  2. Season with a little salt and pepper and add chili powder, cumin, garlic powder and water. Stir to combine. 
  3. Add black beans, corn, bell pepper, and onions and toss to combine. Saute for a 2-3 minutes.
  4. Heat a large skillet over medium high heat.
  5. Warm the rice. Layer tortilla with a handful of cheese evenly spread across the tortilla. 
  6. Add a small scoop of rice, placing it in a line along one end of the tortilla. 
  7. On top of the rice add a few small dollops of sour cream, and a spoonful of the beef filling. Starting at that end, roll the tortilla up, folding in the sides like a burrito. 
  8. Spray the skillet generously with cooking spray and place the wraps seam side down on the greased skillet. 
  9. Gently brush the tops of the wraps lightly with oil, or spray them with cooking spray. Turn the wraps every minute or two until they are golden and crispy on all sides. 
  10. Serve warm, with salsa and/or a creamy cilantro dipping sauce.

The BEST Basic Pancake Recipe

For years, I used a box mix to make pancakes. It was easy — just add water (and maybe an egg, depending on the fanciness of the mix) and pour the batter on the griddle. Then the internet came along and showed me that I could make pancakes from scratch and at a fraction of the cost of a mix. And, surprise! The pancakes actually taste better. First, we must master the basic pancake. And while whipping up a batch takes no time at all, there are some rules to pancake creation to make sure your pancakes turn out fluffy and delicious every time: Ingredients 2 c. all purpose flour 1 T. baking powder 3 T. white sugar 1/2 t. salt 2 eggs 1-1/2 c. milk 2 t. vanilla 1 T. butter, vegetable oil or coconut oil Instructions: Preheat a griddle. If you’re using an electric griddle, preheat to 350 degrees. In a mixing bowl add flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Mix well. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and add eggs, milk and vanilla. Stir to combine. Remember,
