Ingredients:
1/2 cup no-salt-added tomato sauce
1/2 cup salsa
8 corn tortillas ( 6inch)
1/2 lb lean ground beef
1 cup canned fat-free refried beans
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup shredded low-fat cheddar cheese
Directions:
In a small bowl, stir together tomato sauce and salsa. Using about half the tomato sauce mixture, brush both sides of each tortilla. Stack tortillas on a plate and set aside. (This allows tortillas to soften.).
In a large skillet, cook beef over medium-high heat until brown, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Place in a colander and rinse under hot water. Drain well. Wipe skillet with a paper towel. Return beef to skillet. Stir in refried beans, chili powder, cumin and pepper. Cook and stir for 2 minutes, or until heated through.
Preheat broiler.
Spoon about 1/4 cup of the mixture down the center of each tortilla. Roll up tortillas and place, seam side down, in a 10x6x2-inch or 9x9x2-inch.
glass baking dish. Top with remaining tomato sauce mixture.
Broil 4 inches from the heat for 5 minutes, or until browned.
Sprinkle with cheese. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
Cook’s Tip: Not all baking dishes can take the intense heat of the broiler. Make sure the one you choose has tempered glass to withstand high heat. Look on the bottom of the dish for an indication or read the manufacturer’s directions that came with the baking dishes.
