GROUND BEEF MEXI WRAPS

These are fast, cheap and easy. My family inhaled these. This is based on a recipe I saw prepared on Calling all Cooks years ago, with qute a few of my own changes. I use Habanero Lime Hot Salsa in this, but any level of heat that you desire is fine. I have used Emeril's Southwest seasoning, and also Tastefully Simple's Fiesta seasoning in these before, both turned out well. Seasonings measurements are really to taste, I had to give measurements for the computer, but feel free to adjust to your saltiness and spiciness preferences.

  • Lay one chile on each of the crescent roll squares, cut sides up.
  • Top each chile with some of the meat mixture, some cheese, a spoonful of salsa, and some chopped onions.
  • Open the second pack of crescent rolls and make another 6 sqaures as before, then place a square piece over each of the wraps, no need to seal edges.
