Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (15 ounce) can hormel chili with beans
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 cup green onion, chopped (optional)

Tips:

  • Choose the right chili: The type of chili you use will greatly affect the flavor of your burrito. For a classic chili burrito, use a traditional beef chili. If you're looking for something spicier, try a chili verde or a chorizo chili. You can also use a vegetarian chili if you prefer.
  • Make sure your chili is thick enough: The chili should be thick enough to hold its shape when you spoon it into the tortilla. If your chili is too thin, it will make the burrito soggy.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your burrito the best flavor. Use fresh cilantro, tomatoes, onions, and cheese. You can also add other fresh vegetables, such as bell peppers or corn.
  • Don't overfill the burrito: When you're filling the burrito, don't overfill it. Too much filling will make the burrito difficult to roll and eat.
  • Brown the tortillas: Browning the tortillas before you fill them will give them a slightly crispy texture and help to prevent them from tearing.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Chili burritos are delicious served with a variety of toppings, such as sour cream, guacamole, salsa, and cheese.
