  • 1 tsp garlic, minced
  • 2 Tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • ¼-½ tsp cayenne
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • ¼ cup taco sauce
  • 4 -10 inch flour tortillas
  • 4 small flour tortillas ***or just cut a large one into 4ths
  • 1 cup queso
  • 2 cups ice berg lettuce, cleaned and thinly shredded
  • 4 tostada shells
  • 1 cup tomato, diced
  • I cup grated cheese
  • cooking oil or cooking spray

Instructions
 

  • Brown the ground beef over medium high heat. While still pink add the onions and garlic. Break apart with spoon so there are no large pieces.
    Drain if necessary.
  • Add tomato paste and seasonings. Cook and stir until well mixed. Salt & Pepper to taste.
    Set aside or remove to a bowl if using the skillet to cook the wraps.
  • Mix the sour cream & taco sauce. Salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
  • If the tortillas are at all stiff, cover with a paper towel and microwave for 15 seconds.
  • 1. Lay a large tortilla onto surface.
    2, Spoon about ½ cup of filling into center. Spread to about 4 inches in diameter.
    3. Dollop on about 3T of queso and gently spread.
    4. Top with a tostada shell.
    5, Spread with about 2T of spicy sour cream.
    6, Top with around ⅓-½ cup of the lettuce.
    7. Sprinkle with diced tomatoes.
    8. Top with a little shredded cheese, about ⅓ cup.
    9. Place a small flour tortilla, or tortilla piece, in the center.
    10. Fold up one side and then make small pleats folding all into the center.
  • Heat 1T oil in skillet (or spray with cooking spray) over medium heat and place top down. Flip after 3-4 minutes or until golden brown. You can adjust the heat higher if needed but watch carefully so they don't burn.
    Cook for another 3-4 minutes after flipping making sure to cook through.
    ***These are better to cook a little slowly so that the tortilla doesn't burn and the filling is heated through.
  • Cut in half and serve with leftover spicy sour cream and queso.
    ENJOY
  • NOTE: You can build these ahead and refrigerate. Just pull out and throw on the skillet when ready to eat.
