Cheesy Beefy Roll-Ups

Ingredients:

• 1 pound lean ground beef
• 1 packet taco seasoning mix
• 1/4 cup water
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your preferred cheese)
• 4 large flour tortillas
• Optional toppings: salsa, sour cream, guacamole, chopped tomatoes, shredded lettuce

Instructions:

1. Cook the Ground Beef:

1. Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the ground beef until browned and crumbled, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks.
2. Drain any excess grease from the skillet.

2. Season the Beef:

1. Stir in the taco seasoning mix and water, and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beef is well coated and the mixture thickens.

3. Assemble the Roll-Ups:

1. Warm the flour tortillas slightly to make them more pliable.
2. Evenly distribute the seasoned ground beef among the tortillas, spreading it in a line down the center of each tortilla.
3. Sprinkle shredded cheese evenly over the ground beef on each tortilla.

4. Roll Up the Tortillas:

1. Fold the sides of each tortilla over the filling, then roll up tightly from the bottom to enclose the filling completely, forming a roll-up.

5. Serve:

1. Place the Cheesy Beefy Roll-Ups seam-side down on a serving platter.
2. Serve immediately, whole or sliced into smaller pieces, with optional toppings such as salsa, sour cream, guacamole, chopped tomatoes, and shredded lettuce on the side.

Tips:

• Customize the filling by adding diced onions, bell peppers, or black beans to the seasoned ground beef mixture.
• Experiment with different types of cheese, such as Monterey Jack, pepper jack, or a Mexican blend, for varied flavor combinations.
• To make the roll-ups ahead of time, assemble them and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Store in the refrigerator until ready to serve, then slice and serve cold or reheat in the microwave or oven until warmed through.
