In this blog, I will be sharing my family’s favorite beef burrito recipe. This recipe is perfect for busy stay-at-home parents who need a delicious, nutritious meal that can be made quickly. Not only is the beef burrito a delicious meal, but it is also packed with the nutrients that help give our family the energy we need to get through our busy days. I’ve included a list of ingredients below so you can gather everything you need before you start cooking.
Ingredients:
-1 pound of ground beef
-1 can of refried beans
-1 cup of salsa
-2 cups of shredded Mexican cheese
-1 package of 12 burrito-size flour tortillas
-1 teaspoon of chili powder
-1 teaspoon of cumin
-1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder
-Salt and pepper to tasteThis beef burrito recipe brings warm memories to our family. Every time we make it, we remember when my husband and I would make them together when our children were little. We would let them choose their toppings and let them help us assemble the burritos. It was a great way to spend quality time with our kids while also making an easy and delicious meal.
To begin making the beef burritos, start by browning the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat until it’s cooked through. Once the beef has cooked, add in the refried beans, salsa, chili powder, cumin and garlic powder. Stir everything together until it’s well combined and let it simmer for about 5 minutes, or until heated through. Then season with salt and pepper to taste.
Next, grab your package of tortillas and fill each one with about 1/4 cup of the beef mixture and top with some shredded cheese. Roll up each burrito tightly, tucking in the ends as you go so none of the filling falls out during baking. Place each burrito seam side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in a preheated 375°F oven for 15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve your beef burritos with your favorite toppings like sour cream, guacamole or diced tomatoes!
