Very simple, but full of flavor. I used whole wheat tortillas. This was a quick and yummy dinner. We will make this again.

I used chicken mince rather than beef for this,and low fat tortillas with good results. This was a very easy dish to prepare and tasty too-although next time I would add some chopped chillies to the mixture too (we like a bit more kick!!). A good mid-week dinner solution for when time is short and you're starving. Made for PRMR.
