FAIRMOUNT RESIDENT NEWS

 Get out and meet the Abrahamsons if you have not already. Larry and Dunnel are the proud parents of Angela and Andrew Austin – who is just six weeks old as of this writing. They moved here from the St. Cloud region and Larry works at the Cargill Plant in Wahpeton. We hope to see a lot more of them and are very happy they have chosen Fairmount as the place to raise their children.

Recipe

BLT Wraps
I love wraps, but am allergic to mayonnaise, so I
 designed this wrap to be glued together with melted cheese
 instead. A good variation is to substitute taco meat and
 grilled onions for the bacon. Prep Time: approx. 15 Minutes.
   Cook Time: approx. 10 Minutes. Ready in: approx. 25
 Minutes. Makes 4 servings.
   Printed from Allrecipes, Submitted by Karen

1 pound thick sliced bacon,
 cut into 1 inch pieces
4 (12 inch) flour tortillas

1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1/2 head iceberg lettuce, shredded
1 tomato, diced

Directions
1 Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over
 medium-high heat until evenly brown. Drain, and set aside.
2 Place 1 tortilla on a microwave-safe plate. Sprinkle
 tortilla with 1/4 cup cheese. Cook in microwave 1 to 2 minutes,
 or until cheese is melted. Immediately top with 1/4 of
 the bacon, lettuce, and tomato. Fold sides of tortilla
 over, then roll up. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Cut
 each wrap in half before serving.
