Recipe Notes
For a spicy kick, add in jalapenos or Sriracha!
I love this meal not only because it is quick but it is budget friendly as well. Cutting the flour tortilla strips up into the meal is recommended, but if you’d like to control the amount of tortilla you are consuming, skip this step and eat the tortilla on the side! 🙂
