Ingredients
- 455 grams of ground beef
- 2 tablespoons of taco seasoning
- 6 flour tortillas
- 455 grams of refried beans
- 1 cup of shredded Mexican cheese blend
Method
- In a large skillet over high heat, add the ground beef and sprinkle with taco seasoning. Cook, breaking up the meat, until browned and flavorful. Once cooked, drain any excess fat and set aside to cool.
- Next, assemble your burritos. Microwave each flour tortilla for 20 seconds to make them pliable. Then, begin layering the burrito starting with a generous scoop of refried beans, followed by the seasoned ground beef and a sprinkle of shredded Mexican cheese blend.
- 3. To roll your burrito, fold in the left and right sides of the tortilla and roll it up from the bottom, tucking the bottom edge under the filling to create a tight seal. Once rolled, wrap each burrito individually in parchment paper and label them for easy identification.
