Mexican Roll Ups

This is something I made up its a great way to use left over meat.



Use one of your choice

Shredded Chicken, shredded beef or shredded pork

Put in skillet with 1 pkg of taco seasoning

Add enough water so that you may simmer it, not to much



After simmering like 20 min

Place small amount in to soft burrito shell, I like to use the large ones.

Roll them up and secure with toothpicks

In deep fryer or skillet, brown til golden brown

They will be crunchy

Serve with sour cream, salsa or gucamole



Dont forget to remove toothpicks !!!!

Answer 4

Simmer it with taco seasoning and water for tacos, enchiladas or fajitas- just add whichever ingredients will complete it.

You can even make a really good quesadilla with the above, layered on tortillas with drained black beans or refried beans, cheese, and sour cream on top.

You could mix it with spaghetti sauce and mozzarella, and maybe some chopped spinach and stuff into manicotti shells or giant shells.

Wow..there's TONS of things--be creative!
