pepper in
medium bowl. Add beef; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate at

Boil 5 minutes without stirring until syrupy. Stir in crushed red
pepper; set aside. Remove beef from marinade; discard marinade.
Thread beef onto metal or wooden skewers. (Soak wooden skewers in
hot water 30 minutes to prevent burning.) Grill beef over

Grill tortillas until hot. Place lettuce, beef, mint and cilantro
on tortillas; drizzle with vinegar mixture. Roll tortillas to
enclose filling. Garnish with star fruit, bell pepper and orange
peel strips. Makes 6 wraps. Each wrap: 366 cal; 25g fat. Typed by
