Ingredients

Cost per serving $0.61 view details
  • 1 teaspoon canola oil
  • 3 ounces lean ground beef, (1/3 cup)
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • Freshly ground pepper to taste
  • 4 8-inch tortillas, preferably whole-wheat
  • 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese, (2 ounces)
  • on Side:
  • The EatingWell Diet House Salad
  • Banana (1 cup, sliced)

Directions

  1. Heat oil in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add beef, garlic, cinnamon and oregano; cook, stirring, until the beef is no longer pink, about 1 minute. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain off fat; return the meat to the skillet. Stir in water and tomato paste; cook until thickened, about 1 minute. Season with pepper.
  2. Spread the meat on tortillas, dot with feta and fold each tortilla in half.
  3. Heat a large dry skillet over medium-high heat. Place two of the filled tortillas in the skillet and toast until heated through, about 1 minute per side. Repeat with the remaining filled tortillas. Cut each one into 4 wedges and serve hot.
