MEXICAN BEEF ROLLS

Updated: Jan 26, 2021


COOKBOOK: Woman’s Day (June 5, 2005)

I thought maybe this was going to be too much bread for a meal and I didnt know whether it should be served as a side dish, entree or main. I choice to keep is as a part of a main meal and let me tell you it was everyone’s favourite! Delicious!

It took no time to make and can be served in minutes. I loved the crispy bread with the warm mixture, a great dish!


It can also be made on a lazy day when you just want to put together quick dinner or a bite to eat.

It can be served with a green salad or served on it’s own

Enjoy
