Beef and Salsa Pizza

I Know that most people are going to say what this sounds odd but it is really tasty.  Last night my hubby and I were thinking of something to do for dinner and came up with this idea.  Use leftovers from when you make beef and salsa burritos and instead of tortillas use a pizza crust.  The pizza crust can be your choice of homemade or frozen whichever is easier for you

Ingredients

1 pizza crust

1 pkg of mexican style shredded cheese

leftover beef and salsa mixture

prepare your pizza crust and top with the beef and salsa mixture and cheese.  Place in a 425 oven for 15 minutes or until done time may vary with your oven.  Let cool for a few minutes and then slice and serve.

Beef and Salsa Burritos

    About 14 years ago my husband and I discovered a recipe for beef and Salsa burritos.   I always tweak a recipe to mine and my husbands taste.  One day when I did not have enough ground beef I decided that I would try it with half ground beef and half sausage.   It turned out to be a good idea as it is one of my hubby’s favorite dishes.    Below is my version.

Ingredients:

1/2 lb. lean ground beef

1/2 lb hot sausage

1 Tbsp. chili powder
1/4 tsp. ground cumin
1 10-oz. pkg. frozen chopped
spinach, defrosted, well-drained
1 cup prepared chunky salsa
3/4 cup shredded Mexican four cheese blend
8 medium flour tortillas,warmed

Directions:

In a large non-stick skillet, brown ground beef  and sausage over medium heat 8-10 minutes or until no longer pink, stirring occasionally. Pour off drippings. Season beef with chili powder,and cumin,  Stir in spinach and salsa; heat through. Remove from heat; stir in cheese.
To serve, spoon 1/2 cup beef mixture in center of each tortilla. Fold bottom edge up over filling; fold sides to center, overlapping edges.

Makes 8 burritos.

Salmon with Spinach and Feta

I know it has been awhile since I posted a recipe.  I am always on the lookout for easy salmon recipes.  It does not get any easier than this one. I discovered this one a few months ago in one of my many cooking magazines.  In fact I am making it for dinner tonight.  I have modified the recipe to mine and my hubby’s taste.   I season the fish with a salt free garlic herb seasoning before broiling and I use garlic herb feta in place of the plain feta cheese.  Still makes for a tasty recipe.
