MEXIMELT A LA AMY
I love the Meximelts at Taco Bell. However, I don't eat there a lot because sometimes, it gives me a tummy ache. But when I do, there are only two things I order-EVER! Chili-cheese burritos and Meximelts. One of my gal-pals worked there and told me what was in one. I couldn't figure it out because I was too busy inhaling it. So...here's my take on the Meximelt.

Steps:
- Prepare the hamburger meat and drain off all the grease and/or water. Season.
- Microwave the tortilla until it is soft and easy to roll.
- Place a layer of ground beef in the bottom.
- Combine all the cheeses (I just throw it all in a zip-top bag and shake so if there is any left over, I can have it for later.)and sprinkle the desired amount over the beef.
- Add desired amount of salsa, but do not use too much.
- (This is sort of like a taco, only the cheese is melted and there is no lettuce or sour cream or any other toppings.).
- Fold in half and place on a plate.
- Microwave for 30 seconds or just until the cheese is melted.

Tips:
- To achieve the best flavor, use a combination of cheeses that melt well, such as cheddar, mozzarella, and Monterey Jack.
- For a gooey, stretchy cheese pull, use a cheese blend that includes mozzarella or fontina.
- If you want a crispy, golden crust, spread some butter or mayonnaise on the outside of the bread before grilling.
- Add your favorite toppings, such as cooked bacon, diced tomatoes, or sliced avocado, to make the sandwich more flavorful.
- Serve the sandwich immediately after grilling, while the cheese is still melted and gooey.
