Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef 80/20
- 1 small yellow onion finely diced
- 1 ounce taco seasoning 1 packet
- ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 6 large flour tortillas warmed, 12-inch
- 16 ounces canned refried beans 1 can, warmed
- 1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
Instructions
- In a 12" skillet set over medium-high heat add ground beef and yellow onion.
- Cook the meat until it’s no longer pink and the onions are translucent. Drain any fat.
- Add in the taco seasoning and prepare according to the packet directions.
- When the meat is fully cooked stir in the cilantro and remove from the heat.
- Lay out the flour tortillas and spread a layer of refried beans into the middle of each tortilla.
- Top each tortilla with an equal amount of the meat mixture and shredded cheese.
- Roll up each tortilla burrito-style and enjoy warm.
- Optional: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add burrito seam side down and cook 2-3 minutes or until slightly browned. Flip over and repeat with the other side.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- I kept this recipe simple but if desired add sour cream, tomatoes, jalapenos or other favorites into the tortilla before rolling.
- Keep in mind raw vegetables don't freeze well.
