Like all Okies, I love Mexican cooking (Tex-Mex, at least). Here’s a recipe that I found on the net to help celebrate Cinco de Mayo.
Shrimp Burritos
California Milk Advisory Board 1997 Calendar
Real California Panela
Cheese tid bit ~ This fresh cheese has a flavor similar to Cottage Cheese. Use it in sandwiches, salads, with fruit and in cooked foods.

1 LB med. shrimp, shelled and deveined
6 lg. (12") flour tortillas
4 C cooked rice preferably Basmati rice

Warm tortillas in oven or microwave. Top with shrimp, rice, beans and crumbled cheeses. Add a few cilantro leaves and salsa , if desired. Roll-up and serve. Makes 6 servings.
