Homemade Corn Tortillas 1 Ww Point Recipes

OH BOY, SKINNY TACO NIGHT

Steps:

• In a large, nonstick pan or skillet, add beef, onions and garlic. Sauté together until meat is browned. Bring to sink, pour in a colander and drain off any excess fat. Add beef mixture back to pan.
• Add taco seasoning, water and mix well. Bring to a boil, turn heat to simmer and cook for 5 minutes.
• To make one taco-add about ¼ cup taco meat to the shell. Fill with as much lettuce and tomato you desire and top with 1 tablespoon cheese. The taco meat freezes great.

CORN TORTILLAS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix together masa harina and hot water until thoroughly combined. Turn dough onto a clean surface and knead until pliable and smooth. If dough is too sticky, add more masa harina; if it begins to dry out, sprinkle with water. Cover dough tightly with plastic wrap and allow to stand for 30 minutes.
• Preheat a cast iron skillet or griddle to medium-high.
• Divide dough into 15 equal-size balls. Using a tortilla press, a rolling pin, or your hands, press each ball of dough flat between two sheets of plastic wrap.
• Immediately place tortilla in preheated pan and allow to cook for approximately 30 seconds, or until browned and slightly puffy. Turn tortilla over to brown on second side for approximately 30 seconds more, then transfer to a plate. Repeat process with each ball of dough. Keep tortillas covered with a towel to stay warm and moist until ready to serve.

AMAZING WEIGHT WATCHERS BEEF ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven: 350º F.
• Grease a casserole pan lightly, the bottom only.
• Use 1/4 cup of enchilada sauce and cover the bottom of the pan after it is greased.
• Rolling the enchiladas: put some cheese and your carne asada meat into the center of a corn tortilla. Mine are made with 3/4 C meat for two tortillas and 1/3 C cheese for four enchiladas.
• To make a full pan of enchiladas you'll need to place them down one by one and fold the side over. Seam side should go down in your pan and I find it helps to place the filling slightly off center so there's more of a "flap" to fold over the top!
• The last 3/4 C of enchilada sauce goes on top, after that is done you can top will the remaining cheese as well!
• These delicious Weight Watchers enchiladas need to bake for about 20-25 minutes. When the cheese starts looking melty and a bit crispy you'll know they're ready to come out. Top with fresh cilantro and serve!

WEIGHT WATCHERS TACO CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Saute meat, beans, onions, taco seasoning, sauce, and corn on medium-high heat until meat is browned (or soy crumbles are thoroughly cooked).
• Spoon half your meat mixture into your casserole dish in an even layer, top with a thin layer of sour cream, then sprinkle with some cheese.
• Repeat. Cover with cheese.
• Bake at 350 for 15 minutes, then serve topped with diced tomatoes and green onions.

Divide the dough into 6 pieces and shape each into a ball. Roll each ball out between sheets of plastic wrap into a 6-inch round.
• Set a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat and heat until a drop of water sizzles in it. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add a dough round and cook until speckled and slightly puffed, about 1 minute on each side. Transfer the tortilla to a plate lined with a clean kitchen towel; fold the towel over to keep the tortilla warm. Cook the remaining dough rounds to make a total of 6 tortillas, stacking them in the towel as they are cooked.
• To reheat the tortillas, wrap each one in a separate paper towel or napkin and microwave on High until heated, about 5 seconds for each tortilla.
