Flour tortillas
1 pound of ground beef
1 TBSP Worcestershire sauce 
1/2 C. chopped onion

mustard..whatever you like on a cheeseburger really.
Canola oil non stick spray or butter
 
 
Directions:
 
Cook ground beef with onion, Worcestershire, season with salt and pepper.
When its cooked, drain any liquid.
Taste the meat, does it need more seasoning? Add personal touches if you'd like..
Set to the side.
 
Spray skillet with non stick spray or you can use butter.  Lay your tortilla inside the pan.
Add to one side your meat, cheese, ketchup, mustard and any other sauces you may like.  
Fold the tortilla in half, cook on both sides until  browned and slightly crunchy. Heat should be on Low-medium so you don't burn it.
 
Once both sides are browned remove from heat. Open the tortilla and add your pickles, tomato, lettuce and again anything else you make like.
 
This is one of my Favorite meals!
Its a quick one too!!

Recipes

 
Homemade Granola Bars
 
 
 

Ingredients: 
 
2 Cups Old Fashion Oats (uncooked)
1/2 Cup Nuts & dried Fruit (your choice)
I used Cranberries & Pepitas. (pumpkin seed)
1/3 Cup Cocoa nibs (optional)
2 tsp Cinnamon
1 pinch of salt
1/3 Cup Coconut oil
1/3 Cup Honey
1 TBSP Vanilla extract
3/4 Cup Almond butter
 
 

Directions:
 
In a bowl mix Oats, Fruit, nuts, cocoa nibs, cinnamon & salt. Set to the side.
 
In a pot combine Coconut oil, honey, vanilla & almond butter.
 
Turn heat on low and warm till its combined. Don't boil.
Once its all melted mix with dry ingredients.  Press into a greased pan.  I used a 8x8 baking pan. Freeze 2 hours then cut into bars.  I wrap each bar in foil paper and put back in the freezer until serving. It takes a few minutes at room temperature to thaw.  I wouldn't recommend leaving them out for a long time, just because they get soft and fall apart. 
 
This is one of my favorite snacks!!  My kids love them too!! Enjoy!

Quinoa Fiesta Salad
 


Directions:

Mix warm (cooked) Quinoa with Salsa.
Put over Lettuce.
Top with corn, black beans, tomato, avacado, & a little cilantro. 

 (I heated the corn and beans.)

For the dressing I used plain Greek yogurt & hidden valleys Fiesta ranch seasoning (just enough to taste or liking). Add a little milk of choice to make it thin like dressing would be.
 
SO GOOD!!
