Beef Burrito Recipe

Sharing is caring!

Making dinner at night gets to be a task when you have no idea what to make and don’t want the same thing every week. I decided to make Beef Burrito Recipe out of my head that sounded like it would be great and it was! So I decided to share it with you. It’s super quick and simple so you can whip this up in 20 minutes and get back to doing everything else that needs your attention.

I know how it is my almost 2 year old is always bugging me to play with him when I am cooking dinner and if I don’t he will throw a tantrum or just start getting into everything until I’m done cooking. Every meal has to be premade and frozen or refrigerated during his naps. I made this recipe while he napped and put it in the refrigerator for later, then added sauce and cheese.  Anything that makes life easier is wonderful!

 

 

 

 

All you have to do is cook your ground beef add the seasoning, warm tortillas put in cheese, salsa, and anything else you like. I just used salsa and cheese for mine. Roll them up then add the enchilada sauce and more cheese on top.

You can make this ahead of time and wait to add the sauce and cheese till you are ready to put it in the oven.

1/4 tsp Crushed Red Pepper flakes

1/4 tsp Oregano

1/2 tsp  Paprika

1 1/2 tsp Ground Cumin

• 2 cups of cheese, I use sharp cheddar but whatever you have on hand will work
