Preparation

  1. Brown ground beef in medium saucepan over medium-high heat until thoroughly cooked, stirring frequently. Drain.
  2. Stir in beans and chiles. Cook until thoroughly heated. Divide mixture evenly down center of each warm tortilla. Spoon 1 tablespoon salsa down center of each. Place 1 piece of string cheese down center of each tortilla; roll up. Place 2 wraps on each individual microwave-safe plate.
  3. Microwave each plate of wraps on HIGH for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Expert Tips

  • Shredded Colby-monterey Jack or taco-blend cheese can be used in place of the string cheese.
  • Garnish these wraps with additional salsa, sour cream, guacamole, sliced ripe olives, diced tomatoes and shredded lettuce.
  • Once the beef mixture is cooked, this recipe makes an easy do-it-yourself meal for kids. Mix the cooked ground beef, beans and chiles in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. Then let kids have fun wrapping their dinner.
