Spicy Spinach Burritos -- Don't Knock It 'til Ya Try It!!!
"This is SO easy and so delicious! Pretty darned healthy too, I hope you enjoy my favorite spinach recipe!"
- Ready In:
- 13mins
- Ingredients:
- 6
- Yields:
-
4 burritos
- Serves:
- 4
ingredients
- 2 (10 ounce) bags Baby Spinach
- 2 tablespoons garlic, minced (about 8 cloves)
- 5 arbol chiles (dried red chiles)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 flour tortillas
directions
- Heat olive oil in saucepan, add garlic, peppers & salt (adjust salt to your taste, don't overdo as you can always add more & once there's too much you'll have to start over)- cook until garlic is golden in color (make sure you don't burn it). Add spinach (I fill the pot so use as much as you can cram in there - it will wilt down & you definitely want enough), toss to coat & cover. Simmer on low heat until spinach is mushy or tears easily with a fork, about 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat & discard peppers, fill flour tortillas & wrap. My honey heats the tortillas over an open flame first which gives a lovely flavor - if you can make some from scratch that's even better! Enjoy!
- I often make this as an appetizer but sometimes I make it just for me for lunch -- Delicous I tell you! Even my spinach hating ex-husband loves this.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
<p>I'm an experimental cook at home, I love to find new things to make and I try to spoil my honeybunny with something different every night for dinner (unless he requests do-overs of course!). I absolutely love this site ~ it's the first time I've ever thought to publish my recipes, I love to share & hope y'all will love them as much as we do! I love that I don't have to buy cookbooks anymore! <br /> <br />When I'm not at work I love to play with my 2 warmblood horses, a beloved hobby in my country home in Valley Center, they are an Irish Sport Horse colt, a Premium Award recipient Oldenburg colt, (both from my Anglo-Trakehner mare that I gave to my friend Jodi as her daughter's first horse) a white, blue eyed, deaf Great Dane (Moose), our new addition, Annakin (a nearly black German Sheppard who was given to us as a companion for Moose after we lost our sweet Patrick & Lupe, Patrick to cancer & Lupe to old age not a month apart!), 2 very spoiled cats (Petey & Fingers McGee, who has 'hands', he's got 6 toes!) and of course my wonderful Tony! I tell everyone I save the best for last but he doesn't see it that way, he thinks the animals come first... I love that guy! He just showed up in my driveway one day & we've been together ever since! It's been 5 years now... <br /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PAC08Main.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></p>
