Beef Burritos


Been trying to lay off rice and it ain't easy that is all I am going to say!! Dinner today was simple, Joe is away so there is no one to please but myself:-)

Minced Beef
3 pips of garlic chopped
1 yellow onion dices (yes I am into yellow onions:-)
1/4 tsp cumin powder
1 1/2 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon oregano
Good squeeze of lemon juice
Salt and pepper
1 can refried beans
Chopped tomatoes
Chopped Japanese cucumbers
Shredded cheese
Soft shell tortillas

Fry the garlic and onions in olive oil and add the minced meat and let it brown before adding the paprika, oregano and cumin. Let it fry a bit and then add the lemon juice, salt and pepper.

Warm the tortilla shells and spread some refried beans, top with the minced meat, the tomatoes, cucumbers, and cheese (I added a teaspoon of salsa as well...yums!)
