| Ingredients:
1 package (1-3/4 to 2-1/2 pounds) refrigerated fully-cooked boneless beef pot roast with gravy
1 small tomato, washed
1 small bunch fresh cilantro, washed
1/2 cup frozen corn, defrosted
1 jar (16 ounces) prepared thick-and-chunky salsa
4 large flour tortillas (11 to 12-inch diameter)
Directions:
1. Adult help may be needed: With a cutting board and sharp knife, carefully CHOP the tomato; set aside. REMOVE the cilantro leaves from the stems. Carefully CHOP enough cilantro leaves to measure 3 tablespoons; set aside.
2. COMBINE the tomato, 1 tablespoon of the cilantro, corn and 2 tablespoons of the salsa in a small bowl with a spoon; set aside.
3. Adult help may be needed: REMOVE the beef pot roast from the package. SAVE the gravy for another use. PLACE the pot roast on a cutting board. USE 2 forks to pull the pot roast apart into bite-size shreds or pieces.
4. COMBINE the shredded beef, remaining 2 tablespoons cilantro and remaining salsa in a large saucepan.
5. Adult help may be needed: : COOK the beef mixture over medium heat until heated through, STIRRING occasionally with a wooden spoon. TURN the heat off. COVER the saucepan to keep the beef mixture warm.
6. Adult help may be needed: : Meanwhile WRAP the tortillas in paper towel or waxed paper and place in the microwave. MICROWAVE on HIGH 20 to 30 seconds or until warm. Using pot holders, REMOVE the tortillas from the microwave. Careful! Tortillas may be hot!
7. Adult help may be needed: SPOON 1/4 of the beef mixture onto each tortilla, leaving a 1-1/2-inch border around the edge. Careful! Beef mixture will be hot! TOP with 1/4 of the tomato-corn salsa. FOLD the right and left sides of the tortilla over the filling. FOLD the bottom edge of the tortilla up over the filling. ROLL up the tortillas to enclose the filling.
8. The tortillas may also be warmed in the oven. Adult help may be needed: HEAT the oven to 350ƒF. WRAP the tortillas in aluminum foil. HEAT 5 to 10 minutes or until warm. Using pot holders, REMOVE the tortillas from the oven. Careful! Tortillas will be hot!
Cook's Tip: For colorful wraps, use flavored flour tortillas, such as red pepper, tomato or spinach or cilantro. |
