Description

A glorious fusion of gooey grilled cheese and hearty burrito flavors, creating a flavor explosion in every bite.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 1 cup cooked white rice
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup nacho cheese sauce
  • 1/4 cup chipotle sauce
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • Butter or oil for grilling

Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add your ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks.
  2. Add taco seasoning and a splash of water. Stir everything together until the beef is well-coated with the seasoning. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes.
  3. Combine the cooked beef, white rice, sour cream, nacho cheese sauce, chipotle sauce, and half of the cheddar and mozzarella cheese in a large bowl. Mix until well-incorporated.
  4. Lay out your flour tortillas on a clean surface. Place a generous scoop of the filling mixture in the center of each tortilla.
  5. Fold the sides in, then roll the burrito tightly from the bottom up.
  6. Heat a pan over medium heat and add some butter or oil. Place the burrito seam-side down on the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
  7. Remove the burritos from the skillet and let them sit for a minute before slicing them in half diagonally.

Notes

Serve with your favorite dipping sauces like salsa or guacamole. Feel free to customize the filling with different proteins or veggies.
