So, I have this really good Mexican themed meal that you only need one pan to make.
Yup, you heard me correctly. You only need to dirty ONE pan!
We’ve made this meal many times before, but we haven’t had this meal in probably over a year….I’m not sure why because it’s tasty!
Oh, and did I mention it only takes about 20 minutes to cook?
Quick Fix Burrito Skillet (slightly adapted from Kraft Foods)
-1 lb. ground turkey
-1 1/4 cup salsa
-1 cup water
-taco seasoning …a packet will work as well!
-kidney beans, drained
-5-6 6 inch tortillas cut up into pieces
-As much cheese makes you happy!
Brown the turkey. Add the seasoning, salsa, water, and beans. Bring to a boil. Then, let simmer for 5 minutes or so.
Then add the tortillas and mix.
Add cheese to the top of this and add as much cheese as you’d like to the top of it. Cover with a lid and let this continue to simmer until the cheese has melted.
Serve!
This is a quick and easy meal that tastes awesome! It’s so easy to modify to your tastes also!
It was nice to have a dinner success after my mac and cheese failure last night!
Do you have a favorite one pan meal?
After dinner I ran to Target and finished up some birthday shopping for the Little Miss and picked up some tights for each of the girls. They are flower girls in a wedding this weekend. I can’t wait to show you pics…they are going to be ADORABLE! Oh! And Chobani is on sale at Target this week….they were 5 for $6. That’s a pretty decent price where I live, so I grabbed some because I think that the Good Eats Guy is going to start making overnight oats for breakfast and I didn’t want him to steal all of my stash!
Do you have a great overnight oats recipe that I can pass along to him?
I hope you had a great Tuesday! I have to go and write a paper to end my evening. Now only if I could focus!!
love this recipe idea!!! can’t wait to try. i’m all about fast and easy
You’ve had a lot of awesome recipes on here lately! I’ve been craving Mexican a LOT so it’s fun to try new things.
Touche friend! I scoff at one pan recipes because they usually look unappealing to me but this looks fantastic! But then again, anything with meat and cheese wins my heart
Yum! Love Mexican style meals! My favorite one-pan dinners are usually grain/veggie sautes/stir fries!
I definitely need to hit up Target for some Chobani if it’s on sale! I normally don’t get it because it’s so expensive, but I love it
Oooh, now that’s delicious comfort food right there. My one pan meals are usually stir fries, but then it balances out b/c I’ll end up using like 2 chopping boards, 2knives, and at least 3 bowls. You win some, you lose some I guess
.
This is my kind of meal! Fast, easy—and I love that you used turkey!
I often start and end with one pan when it comes to omelets and such- it’s amazing what you can do with a skillet!
I was sold on this recipe when you said only one pan.
Sounds amazing.
I always add chia seeds to my overnight oats, I find it makes a big difference in the texture. Also, frozen berries are good because when they thaw overnight they leak out some of the juice and add a lot of flavor.
That looks freaking delicious.
I love when only one pan gets dirty! That’s why I love chili
This is definitely on my to do list!
Oooh this looks delicious!
With dishwasher currently out of town all the time, I love one pan recipes like this.
I always buy my chobani at Sam’s Club, it’s a little over $11 for 12.
mexican always makes me happy. whether i’m reading about mexican, looking at pictures or eating it, i can’t go wrong.
that looks reaaaaallllllllly good.
Mexi is one of my favoritessss
I make pasta in one pan… cook the pasta, drain and then put it back on the stove and add the sauce. This lets everything heat up together in one pot!
I LOVE MEXICAN FOOD!! That seriously looks amazing
and one pan?! my roommate would love me. (i cook, she does the dishes)
