Tonight I wanted, NEEDED, a burrito! But in trying to be a little bit healthier, I decided to make an un-burrito. It's got all of the good stuff (well, all of the healthy stuff :) that goes inside a burrito, w/out the unhealthy stuff. It was yummy!!! Satisfied my burrito craving!!!
Un-Burritos
1 lb ground beef
1/2 c yellow pepper, diced
1/2 c onion, diced
1 jalapeno, diced and seeded, to remove heat
1/4 tsp cayenne
1 T chili powder
1 T chopped garlic (that wonderful stuff you keep in the fridge!!!)
1 T onion powder
1 T Cumin
Salt & Pepper
2 c shredded lettuce
1/4 c green onion
Chopped, fresh cilantro
Salsa
For the kiddos ;) - 1 cup hot, cooked rice, corn shredded cheese & ranch
Heat skillet on high and add meat, pepper, onion & jalapeno. Brown meat and drain. Mix the spices in a small bowl and add a little water, about 1/4 c. Return meat to skillet, on low heat, and add spices. Saute on low until meat is coated in mixture. Adjust salt to taste.
Arrange lettuce on plates, top w/ meat, onion and cilantro. Top w/ salsa. For the kiddos, I did a rice bowl; rice, meat, corn, cheese, ranch and salsa. This one was a winner!!! Enjoy :)
