Great way to use leftover steak or roast beef. I grew up eating this as a child, as my Mom was really good at using leftovers in creative ways. Great with beef, but you can do the same with pork and chicken. A taco is anything you roll up in a tortilla!!! You can also use this as a burrito filling, just incorporate all the desired garnishes before rolling it up. This ALSO makes a great hash for breakfast. Just put it on a plate, topped with a runny sunny-side-up or over-medium egg. Yum!
