Ingredients:
2 ears corn, husks and silk removed
1 small red bell pepper (about 1/2 cup finely diced)
1/4 cup lightly packed fresh cilantro leaves (optional)
3/4 lb 90% lean ground beef
2 tbsp Chipotle Rub
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups grated Colby and Monterey Jack cheese blend
6 (11-in.) flour tortillas
1 cup prepared guacamole or Avocado Dipping Sauce (see below)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450°F. Remove corn kernels from cobs using Kernel Cutter. Finely dice bell pepper using Santoku Knife. Chop cilantro using Food Chopper, if desired; set aside. Place ground beef, rub and salt in (10-in.) Sauté Pan. Cook over medium-high heat 5-7 minutes or until beef is no longer pink, breaking beef into crumbles using Mix 'N Chop. Add corn and bell pepper; cook an additional 1-2 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender. Remove from heat; drain, if necessary. Stir cheese and cilantro into meat mixture using Small Mix 'N Scraper(R). Transfer meat mixture to Classic Batter Bowl.
2. Spoon meat mixture down centers of tortillas, dividing evenly. Fold in ends of tortillas and roll up tightly. Place roll-ups on Medium Sheet Pan; spray with vegetable oil using Kitchen Spritzer. Bake 10-12 minutes or until roll-ups are lightly browned and crisp.
3. Remove sheet pan from oven to Stackable Cooling Rack. Cut each roll-up on a bias into four slices and serve with guacamole or Avocado Dipping Sauce.
