Ingredients
– 1 pound ground beef
– 1 onion, diced
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 packet of taco seasoning
– 8-10 tortillas
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
– 1 can (16 oz) refried beans
– 1 can (16 oz) diced tomatoes, drained
– Salsa, sour cream, and avocado or cilantro for toppings (optional)
Instructions
1. Cook the ground beef: In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium-high heat until browned, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks.
2. Add onion and garlic: Once the beef is browned, add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook until the onion is translucent.
3. Add taco seasoning: Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the beef mixture and stir to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until the flavors are absorbed.
4. Prepare the tortillas: Warm the tortillas by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving for 20-30 seconds.
5. Assemble the burritos: Spoon about 1/2 cup of the beef mixture onto the center of a tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges. Add a spoonful of refried beans, diced tomatoes, and shredded cheese on top of the beef.
6. Fold and roll the burritos: Fold the bottom edge of the tortilla up over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll the burrito up tightly. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
7. Serve and enjoy: Serve the burritos hot, with your choice of toppings such as salsa, sour cream, avocado, or cilantro.

– Add some diced bell peppers or jalapeños to the beef mixture for extra flavor.
– Use leftover beef or add some cooked rice to the burritos for extra filling.
