2007 National Beef Cookoff

Tex-Mex Beef Wraps with Tomato-Corn Salsa is a favorite recipe of the National Beef Ambassadors. This recipe is so easy to prepare when your friends come over after a game or for your family after a busy day. The recipe is made in the microwave with simple everyday ingredients and a delicious “heat-and-eat” beef product. This recipe is also a great way to use up leftover roast beef (2 cups). The ambassadors found if they didn’t have fresh cilantro on hand, a teaspoon of dried cilantro worked just as well. So go ahead and try it, your friends will asking for more!
