Categories Tacos & Burritos

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

1 1/2-2 lb stew meat
1 large can enchilada sauce
2 beef bouillon, cubes
1/2 can(s) refried beans
5-7 burrito sized flour tortillas
cheddar cheese, shredded

Steps:

1. In crock pot put beef, enchilada sauce and bouillon and cook on low 7-8 hours (or high 3-4), until beef is fork tender.
2. When beef is done taste and add salt if needed. Heat up refried beans and put oven on broil. On oven proof plate or cookie sheet place tortilla and 1/2 cup of beef and spoonful of beans.
3. Roll into burrito and pour enchilada sauce over to completely cover. Sprinkle with cheese and broil until cheese melts.

Tips:

To save time, marinate the beef overnight or for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
If you don't have time to marinate the beef, you can skip that step and just cook it in the skillet until browned.
Use a large skillet so that the beef has plenty of room to brown.
Don't overcrowd the skillet with beef, or it will steam instead of brown.
Cook the beef over medium-high heat until it is browned on all sides.
Once the beef is browned, reduce the heat to medium-low and add the vegetables.
Cook the vegetables until they are softened, about 5 minutes.
Add the enchilada sauce and water to the skillet and bring to a simmer.
Simmer the beef mixture for 15-20 minutes, or until the beef is cooked through.
While the beef mixture is simmering, make the rice according to the package instructions.
To assemble the burritos, spoon some rice onto a tortilla.
Top the rice with the beef mixture, cheese, and any other desired toppings.
Fold the tortilla up and enjoy!
