Beef Burritos Mexican (Print Version)
Soft tortillas stuffed with juicy beef, gooey cheese, and savory beans. A quick meal for gatherings or busy nights.
# Ingredients:
01 -
8 soft flour tortillas
02 -
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
03 -
1 can of smooth refried beans
04 -
1 small bunch chopped cilantro, optional
05 -
1 pound browned ground beef
06 -
Optional: a dollop of sour cream
07 -
1 packet pre-made taco spices
08 -
Optional: diced tomatoes for topping
# Steps:
01 -
Lay out your tortillas flat. You'll need one per serving.
02 -
Mix your browned ground beef with the taco packet seasoning. If it's already cooked, you're looking at about 5 minutes to do this.
03 -
Open the can of beans and spread a thin, even layer around the outer edges of each tortilla.
04 -
Scoop seasoned beef on top of the beans, then sprinkle generously with your shredded cheese—cheddar, pepper jack, or any type you prefer.
05 -
Fold the ends of each tortilla inward and roll them up tightly into burrito shapes.
06 -
Set your burritos onto a microwave-safe plate with the seam downwards. Heat them in the microwave for about a minute, just long enough to melt the cheese and warm through.
07 -
If you want, add a spoon of sour cream, cilantro, and some chopped tomatoes before serving immediately.
# Notes and Tips:
01 -
Leftover seasoned beef and beans can be saved in the fridge for later if you're making a smaller batch.
