My friend Kelly the Kitchen Kop is hosting a Real Food Wednesday carnival to share recipes and ideas for healthy fast food (not fast food like you get from a drive-thru window . . . healthy food you can make - fast). I am so glad Kelly is hosting this carnival, because who couldn't use some ideas to help get healthy food on the table in a short amount of time?The following "recipe" is one of my favorite quick-fix meals:
Meat & Mashed Potato Wraps- Warm tortillas (Ezekiel brand or homemade) until soft and pliable.
- Meanwhile, heat leftover mashed potatoes and shredded bbq beef (pieces of leftover steak, brisket, or roast also work well) on the stove in separate saucepans.
- Spread a thin layer of mashed potatoes on each tortilla (spread to within 1 inch of edge).
- Make a strip of shredded beef down the middle of the potatoes, then sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over top of beef.
- Optional: season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Wrap like a burrito, securing with a toothpick if necessary. Serve immediately.
What a great idea, and kids would LOVE this, too! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, McKenzie!
This sounds so yummy...sometimes I make burritos for the freezer when I have leftover mashed potatoes and pinto beans, but my husband would like them better with some meat! Sounds YUMMY!
ReplyDeleteThat's a cool idea! My toddler would love it.
