Ingredients
  

Beef and Filling

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 oz taco seasoning packet

Cooking Instructions

  • Cook the beef in a sauté pan, breaking apart the meat as it cooks, until no longer pink. Then add the taco seasoning and water and stir, cook for another minute. Stir in the refried beans. (If the meat and bean mixture is a little too thick, add a little more water till desired consistency.)
  • Cook your instant Mexican rice or warm leftover rice. Heat the tortillas in the microwave for 30 seconds.
  • Assemble: Lay a tortilla flat and add a couple of tablespoons of the meat mixture into the middle of the tortilla. Add a couple of tablespoons of rice over the meat. Layer with fritos, a large spoonful of cheese dip, some shredded cheese and a spoonful of sour cream. Fold the sides in, then start rolling from one end to roll into a burrito. Repeat with the remaining burritos.
  • You can serve them as is, or heat them in a pan on the stove over medium heat to toast/crisp the outside. Serve immediately with salsa, if desired.
