Tex-Mex Breakfast Tacos or Burritos

This is quick and easy to make….great for Sunday night supper!

Cheat for E-Z Simple Breakfast Burrito: Crispy hash brown patty potatoes. The worst breakfast burritos I've had were like mush with no texture. I always start with crispy potatoes, then some kind of meat (bacon, sausage, ham, leftover taco meat, etc.), scrambled eggs, seasonings, and cheese.

Ingredients

1 roll (12oz) Jimmy Dean regular pork sausage

1/2 cup chopped onion

2 tablespoons taco seasoning

3 eggs

1/2 cup Taco Bell Salsa (mild)

1/4 cup fresh chopped cilantro, optional

Fresh ground black pepper (taste before you salt)

Soft flour tortillas

Old El Paso Super Stuffer taco shells

Spray large skillet with Pam and then sauté onion until tender; add sausage and with a spatula break up into small pieces.

Cook over medium heat until well done and then add taco seasoning and eggs, stirring and continue cooking until eggs are done.

Stir in salsa and cilantro until well mixed. Fill soft flour tortillas or taco shells and serve immediately.

Garnish:

Lettuce - Tomatoes - Green onion – Avocado – Cheddar cheese - Cilantro

Note: I spray a griddle with Pam and then heat the flour tortilla until hot, turning over a couple of times. To fill the tortilla, place the meat mixture in the middle and then fold up one end first and then both sides.

This recipe made 2 nice size burritos and 3 super tacos. If you use the 16-ounce roll of sausage, add one more egg.

Rhubarb Dump Cake

How to make rhubarb dump cake - Print Recipe

Start by arranging chopped rhubarb (you can use fresh or frozen) in a 13-by 9-inch baking dish.

Sprinkle strawberry jello (or any red jello) over the rhubarb, then top with granulated sugar.

Top with yellow cake mix (or white cake mix), then melted butter, then cold water.

Bake for about an hour, until the fruit is bubbling.

TIP: Rhubarb Dump Cake lasts for several days in the fridge you can totally make it a day ahead. I actually think the flavor improves if it’s refrigerated overnight.

Ingredients

4 cups sliced fresh or frozen rhubarb from about 15-16 ounces 3- ounce box strawberry jello or any red jello
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 15.25-ounce box Duncan Hines white or yellow cake mix*
1/2 cup butter melted (salted butter is better here)
2 cups cold water

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray a 13- by 9-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Arrange the rhubarb in an even layer in the bottom of the baking dish. Sprinkle the jello over that, then top with the sugar.
Sprinkle the yellow cake mix powder over all of that, then top with the melted butter and the cold water.
Bake for 45 minutes to an hour, until the top is lightly browned and the rhubarb is bubbling.


It’s possible to serve the dump cake warm but it’s MUCH easier to serve if you chill it for a couple of hours, until it sets up a bit. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream if desired.
Uneaten cake can be stored in the fridge, covered, for up to 4 days or frozen (tightly wrapped) for up to 2 months.
