Place a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir ground beef, 1/2 cup chopped onion, and garlic in the hot skillet until beef is browned and crumbly, breaking it apart as it cooks, about 8 minutes; drain excess grease. Mix in 1/2 of the can diced tomatoes, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, paprika, oregano, 3/4 teaspoon cumin, and black pepper. Bring meat mixture to a boil over medium-high heat and cook for 5 minutes, stirring often.

Place warmed tortilla onto a work surface and spoon 1/4 of the beef mixture in a line down the center. Layer 1/4 of the bean mixture on top of beef layer and spread 1/4 cup of the Cheddar cheese over the bean layer. Fold right and left edges of tortilla over the ends of the filling and roll up tortilla to make a burrito. Place burrito, seam side down, into a 9x13-inch baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas to make 4 burritos.

Low-Fat Chocolate Sicilian Gelato
After lots of experimenting to develop a low-fat ice cream or gelato, I came up with this recipe. Despite the lengthy instructions, it's very simple to make. I couldn't believe how wonderfully rich and creamy it turned out to be. The secret is in the cocoa powder, which makes the gelato dense and rich without adding fat. Because the gelato contains no fat, leftovers will freeze hard. To soften, defrost leftovers in the microwave for 20 to 30 seconds.
Chef's Salad with Grilled Chicken and Black Pepper Ranch
I thoroughly enjoyed eating this salad for dinner, but my favorite bites were the chunks of sharp Cheddar, lettuce, dressing, cucumber, and chicken. This is a classic ranch dressing ratio, so it hits your taste buds the way it should. The black pepper is not oppressive as it's balanced out by the tangy buttermilk and creamy mayo. Can't go wrong with this!
