INSTRUCTIONS
At the end of each month, The Cook and Kitchen Staff select some of the
best recipes sent to Recipe-a-Day and post them to the entire membership.
Today's offering is from Recipe-a-Day members the "Special K Family," and
they have informed us that this meal-in-a-skillet is their traditional
Cinco de Mayo fare.
Any way you prepare it, today's recipe makes short work out of dinner
tonight; it contains about 322 calories per serving when prepared with a
beef filling.
Thank you to all Recipe-a-Day members who took the time to send in a
recipe. We're just sorry we won't have an opportunity to publish them all!
Heat dressing and lime juice in a large skillet over medium to medium-high
heat. Add meat and cook for 2 or 3 minutes, then remove meat from skillet
and reserve. In the same skillet, sauté the onion and pepper slices for 1
or 2 minutes. Return meat to the skillet and add chopped tomato and
cilantro. Continue to cook for 1 or 2 minutes.
Warm tortillas as directed on the package.
Serve meat mixture sizzling hot from the pan, garnished with grated cheese
and salsa and rolled up in the warm tortillas.
