Ingredients
Method
Cooking the Beef
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon (about 5-7 minutes). Drain any excess fat.
Seasoning the Beef
- Add the taco seasoning to the beef and stir in according to package instructions. If desired, mix in black beans and cooked rice for extra flavor and texture.
Preparing the Tortillas
- Warm the tortillas in a microwave or on a skillet for about 10 seconds to make them easier to fold.
Assembling the Burritos
- Place a scoop of the beef mixture in the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheese on top.
Rolling the Burritos
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla over the filling and then roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top.
Toasting the Burritos
- For a crispy finish, place the rolled burritos seam side down on a skillet over medium heat for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
Serving the Burritos
- Slice the burritos in half and serve with your favorite toppings, such as salsa, sour cream, and fresh avocado. Enjoy!
Notes
Feel free to spice things up with jalapeƱos or hot sauce. Use whole wheat or corn tortillas for a healthier option. Burritos freeze beautifully for up to three months.
