"When I fix steak, I always grill one extra so I have leftovers to make these delicious filled tortillas," informs Kris Wells of Hereford, Arizona. The steak strips are seasoned with salsa, chili powder and cumin, then tucked inside soft flour tortillas with tasty toppings.

This was very good. I also make extra when I cook steak for tacos and such. I made the recipe as is, it was good. But, for our taste I added 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes for some heat. I will make this again!

Absolutely fabulous recipe! We always have leftover steak so this works great for me. My kids love these as well. A definite plus as they are very picky with "Mexican" food. Thanks for sharing.

This was so super easy and tastes fantastic! Even my picky husband liked it and he didn't say I was wasting perfectly good (leftover) steak.

I wish I could make an extra steak for this everynight. This was oh so yummy, but there's no way this feeds six in my family. I'd have to have at least 3 extra steaks on hand...we couldn't get enough of it. I will also try this recipe with leftover roast the next time I have some.

Scrrrrrrrrumptious! Very, very good. I just used the steak that we had leftover from the previous dinner and it was just fine.

First I sautéed the onion in butter, then I put in the cooked steak until it was browned a little more. After all that, I just stuck to the recipe.

My husband really, really likes it (and he is a little picky), and would eat it again in a heartbeat... except he doesn't want to waste a fresh steak :D. We agree that this is the perfect recipe for leftover steaks.
