Ingredients
1 lb ground beef (or turkey/plant-based alternative)
1 packet taco seasoning
2 cups cooked white rice (or brown rice/quinoa)
1 cup sour cream (or yogurt/dairy-free alternative)
1 cup nacho cheese sauce
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 tablespoon chipotle sauce (adjust to taste)
4 large flour tortillas (or whole wheat/gluten-free)
2 tablespoons butter or oil
Instructions
Cook the Beef:
In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef for 8–10 minutes until browned. Drain excess grease. Add taco seasoning and a splash of water, then simmer for 5 minutes.
Warm the Tortillas:
Heat tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for about 20 seconds. Keep covered to stay soft and pliable.
Assemble the Burritos:
On each tortilla, layer rice, seasoned beef, nacho cheese sauce, sour cream, and chipotle sauce. Sprinkle shredded cheddar and mozzarella on top.
Wrap the Burritos:
Fold in the sides, then roll tightly into a burrito.
Grill the Burritos:
Heat butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place burritos seam-side down and grill for 3–4 minutes until golden and crispy. Flip and cook another 3–4 minutes.
Serve:
Let cool slightly, slice in half, and serve with extra chipotle sauce or guacamole.
Notes
Don’t overfill to prevent tearing while rolling.
Use a non-stick pan for even crisping.
Add beans, corn, or veggies for extra texture and nutrition.
Adjust spice level by adding more or less chipotle sauce.
