List of Ingredients




1/2 lb lean ground beef
1 can (14 1/2 oz) diced tomatoes with green chilies (mild to hot, as desired)
1 can (about 16 oz) black beans, rinsed
1 1/2 tsp chili powder
8 fajita-size flour tortillas (about 6 1/2 in.)
1 ripe avocado
1 bag (12 oz) All-American or other salad blend
1/3 cup Ranch dressing



Recipe



. Place a large saucepan over medium-high heat. When hot, add beef and cook, breaking up clumps with a wooden spoon, 4 minutes or until meat is no longer pink. Add canned tomatoes, rinsed beans and the chili powder. Stir until thoroughly blended. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes to blend flavors.

2. Meanwhile heat the tortillas in microwave as package directs, prepare avocado (see Tip) and line 4 plates with salad greens.

3. Spoon beef mixture crosswise in center of each tortilla and roll up. Place on salad greens; add avocado and drizzle salad with dressing. Serve immediately.
