Beef Meximelts!

I think one of my favorite things to do in the kitchen is to take food that I would eat OUT and make it at HOME.  Cooking at home allows me to control ingredients, salt and flavor for me and my family and that means so much to me.  

As much as I love being creative I also love a fun and easy meal.  This is one of those fun and easy meals.  Taking about 15 minutes to make, this one is so quick you won't even realized you cooked dinner.

Ingredients:

1 lb ground beef, cooked through and seasoned with your favorite taco seasoning

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese

Flour tortillas

*sour cream or salsa for dipping optional

Start out by browning your beef.  Season with your favorite taco seasoning.  I like creating my own, but store bought seasoning works as well.

Once your meat is ready, take a flour tortilla and lay out.  Fill with meat and shredded cheddar and pepper jack cheeses.

Place in the microwave for about 1 minute, or until cheese is melted.

Once melted, immediate wrap up the sides so the melted, hot cheese works like glue for your meximelt.

Allow to cool slightly and serve.  Easy, quick and yummy!  For the kids, omit the pepperjack cheese.  Even my toddler loves these because she can hold them and eat without the stuffing falling out.  

Try this one next time you want a quick and easy meal!

Cheers!
