Green chiles, salsa and jalapeno peppers add lots of zip to these meaty burritos. Instead of cooking the filling on the stove, it can be simmered in a slow cooker. —Deb Poitz, Fort Morgan, Colorado

Ingredients

2 to 3 cups julienned cooked roast beef
1 jar (16 ounces) salsa
1 cup salsa verde or regular salsa
1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chiles
1 to 3 teaspoons diced jalapeno pepper, optional
6 to 8 flour tortillas (8 inches)
Shredded cheddar or Colby cheese
Sour cream, chopped tomatoes and additional salsa, optional

Directions

In a saucepan, combine the beef, salsa, chiles and jalapenos if desired. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, for 15-20 minutes or until mixture reaches desired thickness. Spoon 1/3 to 1/2 cup off-center on each tortilla; sprinkle with cheese. Fold the sides and ends of tortilla over filling and roll up. Serve with sour cream, tomatoes and additional salsa if desired.

Peppers (Hot)

Wear disposable gloves when cutting hot peppers; the oils can burn skin. Avoid touching your face.
