Taste of Home Tasty Burritos

Jim LOVES Mexican food! Anything with beans and beef is a fast favorite for him. This dish is no different.  If I say a burrito is on the menu he is already at the table! This recipe is simple and perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is also easily customized to your taste. If you want more spice, add some canned chopped jalapeños,  if you want to use different cheese go for it!  Serve with salsa and sour cream, add a salad and rice and beans and your dinner is done.

Note- this is slightly adapted from the original Taste of Home Recipe

INGREDIENTS
1 pound ground beef
1 envelope taco seasoning
1 can refried beans (16 ounce)
6 flour tortillas (12 inches)
1 cup shredded Colby Monterey Jack cheese
4 teaspoons canola oil
Sour cream for serving
Salsa for serving

DIRECTIONS
In a large skillet cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink, drain and stir in the taco seasoning stirring well to combine. Add in the desired about of refried beans (I used about 1/2 the can). Stir to combine with beef and warm through, add the cheese and stir until melted and combined. Remove from heat.
With one tortilla at a time, fill the tortilla with about 1/4 cup of the beef/bean mixture. Fold the sides of the tortilla and roll setting aside with the seam side down. Follow this for each tortilla.
In a large skillet over medium high heat, add the canola oil. Add the burritos a couple at a time until browned on both sides. This does not take long so don’t leave the stove!  Serve warm with salsa and sour cream.

Enjoy!
