  1. Great way to use up left over taco meat and perfect for my DH lunch. He loves tacos and this way just down his alley! Easy to make and easy (less messy than taco) to eat. Thanks for sharing this great recipe that we will use again, often.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p><br />I love to cook, read and try new recipes. Marketing professional by education and business experience, but wrote cooking feature articles and a recipe column in the past--when my 2 sons were young. Also, owned a book shop for 5 years; carried lots of cookbooks; and, of course-- had to have one of each. LOL! Invited cookbook authors to signing events and would make some of their recipes for customers to sample. <br /><br />My philosphy is-- <br /><br />LIFE IS NOT A JOURNEY TO THE GRAVE WITH THE INTENTION OF ARRIVING SAFELY IN A PRETTY AND WELL-PRESERVED BODY, BUT RATHER TO SKID IN BROADSIDE, THOROUGHLY USED UP, TOTALLY WORN OUT, AND LOUDLY PROCLAIMING, WOW! WHAT A RIDE! <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/purplechefhat.gif alt= /> <img
