- Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 30 sec. Season with pepper, to taste.
- Just before serving, wrap tortillas in paper towels. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, divide tortillas into two equal stacks, then wrap in paper towels.)
- Microwave until tortillas are warm and flexible, 30 sec-1 min. (TIP: You can skip this step if you don't want to warm the tortillas!)

- Top tortillas with beef and veggies, then spoon salsa fresca over top.
- Dollop with lime crema and sprinkle with cheese.
