BEEF & TURKEY BURRITOS



BEEF & TURKEY BURRITOS image

In trying to use up items in my pantry, I decided to make BURRITOS ON YESTERDAY FOR DINNER. I only needed a few fresh ingredients to make the meal complete. I used ground Chuck & mixed it with ground turkey. It is a simple meal, but the hardest part is all of the chopping of the veggies, which really isn't hard just a little...

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 lb ground chuck
1 lb lean ground turkey
2 pkg taco seasoning mix (or seasoning of your choice)
4 medium tomatoes, chopped
1/2 head lettuce, shredded finely
8 oz finely shredded mexican cheese
1 medium red onion,chopped or use green or what ever you prefer
2 pkg large burritos (6 pk)
3 can(s) refried beans
salsa, chunky (your choice)
sour cream ( i prefer daisy brand)

Steps:

  • 1. Combine Beef & Turkey in a large skillet.
  • 2. Cook over medium high heat. Break up meat chunks as it cooks with a wooden spoon. When meat is fully cooked. Set a large colander over a large bowl, then drain meat into colander over the bowl to catch the excess fat.
  • 3. Then pour meat back int skillet and add the taco seasoning, or which ever seasoning you are using along with 3/4 cups of water, then allow meat to simmer till liquid has been absorbed.
  • 4. Prep and chop all the vegetables that will be used. Lettuce, tomatoes, onions, salsa, sour cream,cheese. I like to put all ingredients on a large platter. WE DO NOT CARE FOR CILANTRO, that is why none is used, but if you like it, by all means use it.
  • 5. Heat beans, either in skillet or microwave. When heated you will then be ready to assemble your burritos.
  • 6. Add one large flour tortilla to a flat surface, I used a large pizza pan. Then spread bean mixture on 1/2 side of tortilla, leaving the other side plain and empty.
  • 7. Next Add Ground Beef
  • 8. Then add Tomatoes
  • 9. Add chopped onions
  • 10. Add shredded cheese.
  • 11. Add salsa & sour cream,
  • 12. Top with shredded lettuce.
  • 13. Then with the bottom end that is closest to you, pull bottom portion of burrito up and over all the filling mixture,being careful not to tear the bread. Then wrap as tightly as you can.
  • 14. Until you have a COMPLETE ROLL.
  • 15. With a serrated knife cut burrito on an angle and in HALF, MAKING IT MUCH EASIER TO GRASP & EAT. SERVE WITH YOUR FAVORITE SIDE ITEMS. Please note you can assemble your burrito any way you like, I just put all the ingredients inside the sandwich, instead of some on the side. Enjoy, and this is so tasty and filling.

Tips for Making Perfect Beef and Turkey Burritos:

  • Choose high-quality ground beef and turkey: Opt for leaner cuts of beef, such as 90% lean ground beef, and ground turkey with at least 85% lean meat. This will ensure that your burritos are flavorful and not greasy.
  • Cook the beef and turkey thoroughly: Make sure the beef and turkey are cooked through before assembling the burritos. This will prevent any potential foodborne illnesses.
  • Use a variety of toppings: Don't limit yourself to just cheese and sour cream. Experiment with different toppings such as guacamole, pico de gallo, diced avocado, or shredded lettuce to add flavor and texture to your burritos.
  • Warm the tortillas before assembling: Warming the tortillas before filling them will make them more pliable and less likely to tear. You can warm tortillas in a skillet over medium heat or wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave them for a few seconds.
  • Roll the burritos tightly: Once you've filled the tortillas, roll them up tightly to prevent the filling from falling out. You can also fold the ends of the burritos to make them easier to eat.

Conclusion:

These beef and turkey burritos are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With a variety of toppings to choose from, you can customize these burritos to suit your own taste.
