Mexican Flatbread Pizza.

{If you liked the tostada recipe I posted, you will love this. Same concept, just with a soft flatbread crust instead of a hard shell. In this recipe I used ground beef, but you could easily substitute chicken or beans to suit your taste.}

Ingredients:
1 can large biscuits (non-flaky)
refried beans
salsa (optional)
grated cheddar cheese
browned ground beef, seasoned
shredded lettuce
sour cream

Directions:
Brown ground beef on stove. Season with taco seasoning and set aside.

Preheat oven to 375. Flour work surface and roll out each biscuit until very flat. Brush lightly with olive oil. Bake for 8 minutes or until starting to turn golden. Remove from oven and set aside.

Heat refried beans on stove and mix in salsa if you are using.

Assemble. Cover each flatbread with refried beans. Top with meat. Sprinkle with cheese. Return to oven for 3 minutes or until melted. Top with lettuce and sour cream.

Cut into wedges and serve.

{Note: My boys LOVED this. To keep it simple for the little ones I made there's with just meat and cheese. I loved how they could pick up the pieces and it all stayed together, unlike when they eat tacos. The crust is soft and delicious. This was DEVOURED. It will be easy to change up and be in the weekly lineup quite often.}

Beef Taquitos

{We do some variation of a taco night most weeks. It's an easy, healthy dinner that even the pickiest kids usually go for. The frustrating thing for the boys is when we have soft tacos and they can't hold onto them without the taco falling apart. I was inspired by this recipe for beef taquitos and it turned out to be the perfect solution to this problem. My boys were able to hold it easily and eat the entire taquito without it breaking apart.}.

Here's the ingredients you will need:

* Vegetable oil (small amount for brushing on taquitos)

* 1 1b lean ground beef

* 1 packet taco seasoning

* cheddar cheese (enough to fill each taquito)

* flour or corn tortillas (10 will feed 4-6)

* sour cream (optional)

* salsa (optional)

Directions:

1. Heat oven to 400 degrees.

2. In a skillet brown the ground beef.

3. Add the taco seasoning and cook per packet's directions. Set aside.

4. Stack the tortillas on a plate and cover with damp paper towels. Microwave until pliable, about 45     seconds.
