As horrible as my studying went yesterday (read: almost non-existant), I was in a state of studying most of the day. Therefore, dinner had to be quick. In comes the "Beef" Burrito Skillet. Its basically a burrito filling with the tortilla chopped up and stirred in. It was very good. Spicy too, since I used seasoned ground round and nacho soy cheese. The heat could be cut down by changing both or either one.
Quick Fix Beef Burrito Skillet
Serves 4
1 package ground round
1/8 cup taco seasoning mix (note, usually high in sodium, can be left out if preferred)
19 oz can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup salsa
1 cup water
4 small flour tortillas, cut into 1.5" squares
1 cup shredded cheese
1/3 cup Tofutti sour cream
1/3 cup chopped green onions
Heat ground round in large skillet on med-high. Add seasoning mix, beans, salsa and water; stir. Bring to boil and simmer on med-low for 5 minutes.
Stir in tortillas and top with cheese. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes or til cheese melted (it may have to be stirred in to really melt). Top with sour cream and green onion.
Optional: top with favourite toppings: tomato, shredded lettuce, or avocados.

looks good! very yummy!
Ooh, studying's been driving me mad, I haven't even been bothering to cook. That looks so tasty though and as it's really quick I think I might try it out.
Good luck with the studying!
Nothing like a burrito to get you through a long study session! looks yummy. Good Luck with the rest of those exams.
Melissa, that meal is right up my alley. That would be so perfect on a weeknight for an after work dinner. We love taco-y burrito-y things so this would be perfect. Thank you for also posting the recipe!
Oooooooooh, that looks scrumptious! Nice that you posted the nutrition info along with the absolutely gorgeous, clear photos...
