olive, cheese and ham burrito

so i was hungry and out of food the other night. i went browsing my fridge and cabinet, scavenging for any food i could find. i came across a few things that im sure most of you have already. don't knock it till you try it. my ole lady is a picky eater and she gave it a thumbs up. i didn't tell her what it was before she ate it and told her to leave it if she didnt like it cause it would be breakfast for the next day there was none left

ingredients:

1 can chopped olives (4 oz)
5 slices of ham ( i used turkey)
1 table spoon butter (i cant belive its not butter works too)
bunch of cheese ( ive used 3 slices of american once and a handfull of colby jack another time)
2 tortillas ( i used mission carb healthy something-er-other burrito size)

*OPTIONAL*
onion (i used dehydrated bottled stuff)
hot sauce (tapatio tasted yummy)

how to make:

in pan, sautee onions first, if you want'em, until caramelized. add olives and ham. i cooked at a medium heat for like 10 minutes. when all is nice and hot, add cheese and remove from heat. mix cheese nice n sticky like. put nice sized glob on war tortilla. and crap you may like ( sour cream, salsa, guacamole). im thinking of making a breakfast variation and adding some egg and bacon. or maybe one with rotisserie chicken.


makes 2 decent sized burritos.

 

Ack - olives are vile!

 

Olives are good. You're vile!

 

That looks pretty good!

 

its a trip. i thought the olive taste would overpower everything else, but it doesnt. once in the onions and butter and heat, it loses some of the taste

 

Maybe...

 

Just my personal taste. I like cooking with olive oil but detest the taste and texture of olives - black, green, stuffed -- VILE i say!

'Course, nuff butter and onions and even the sole of my boot would taste good!

 

theyre chopped so the "normal" texture isnt there. and did i mentio the salty goodness dude, im sure you have most the ingredients in your pad. just by the fine chopped olives and try it out. worst case scenario, you feed it to your dog

 

Also...how much/many onions? I didn't read how to make it, I just read the ingredients and it sounded really good. But now that I went through the whole post, it sound even better with the caramelized onions.

 

LOL - I'd sooner feed my dog broken glass than the vile fruit know as ... OLIVE!

 

It's a fruit?

 

Stop being so technical. Fruit simply sounded good within the verbosity of my melifluous parlance. (Eww - I even impressed myself with that roll of words - Wonder what I meant?)

But ... to repeat ... olives =

 

I'm not really sure, but if it isn't really a fruit G2 is technically using the term "fruit" correctly. Because it is the fruit of a plant.

 

Smarter than the average bear you are, sir.

 

Oh my.

 

i used like a table spoon of the dry stuff just for some flavoring.

like your negativity towards the onion was alrite and all, but now your just shitting on my thread.

 

Nah - not my style ever. My dad's name was Olive ... but that's a long, sad story.
