Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 2 tablespoons Taco seasoning mix
- 1 cup Water
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 ounces Chopped green chilies
- 2 pieces Green onions, finely chopped
- 4 pieces Large flour tortillas
Instructions
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and fully cooked, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess grease.
Stir in the taco seasoning mix and water. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat and cook for 5 more minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and sour cream until smooth and creamy.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green chilies, and finely chopped green onions until well combined.
Once the taco meat has cooled, gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture until evenly incorporated.
Lay one flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread an even layer of the taco mixture over the tortilla using a spatula, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Roll the tortilla tightly, starting from one edge and rolling to the other side like a jelly roll. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Wrap each rolled tortilla in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up.
Unwrap the rolls and use a sharp knife to slice each tortilla into 1-inch pinwheels.
Arrange the pinwheels on a serving platter and enjoy!
