Meximelts are my guilty pleasure. This Beef Meximelt Recipe (inspired by Taco Bell) is super easy, unbelievably delicious and so much better than the drive-thru. Make a copycat version of your fast food favorite at home for an awesome lunch or dinner.
Ingredients
1 Lb Lean Ground Beef
(1 ounce) Packet Taco Seasoning
1/2 Cup Water
6 Large Flour Tortillas
16 ounces Shredded Mexican Cheese Blend
1/2 Cup Pico de Gallo Salsa
Instructions
In large pan, brown ground beef. Drain oil then return to pan.
Add water and taco seasoning. Mash meat to fine crumbles.
Bring mixture to a gentle boil and simmer 5-10 minutes until saucy. Remove from heat.
Wrap tortillas in damp paper towel and microwave 15-20 seconds to soften.
Fill each tortilla with meat, cheese and pico de gallo. Tuck in the ends and roll like a burrito.
Wrap each meximelt with a damp paper towel and microwave for 15 seconds. (This melts the cheese and gives the tortilla that slightly steamed quality)
Serve hot.
