📝 Instructions

9 steps
1

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the oil.

2

Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it apart with a spatula, until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.

3

Drain any excess grease from the skillet and stir in the taco seasoning. Add 1/4 cup water, stir, and let simmer for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.

4

Warm the tortillas in the microwave or in a dry skillet for a few seconds to make them pliable.

5

Assemble the burritos: In the center of each tortilla, add a scoop of cooked rice, a scoop of seasoned beef, a spoonful of black beans, and a sprinkle of shredded cheese.

6

Add a dollop of sour cream and salsa on top of the filling, then layer with lettuce and diced tomatoes.

7

Fold the sides of the tortilla in, then roll it up tightly from the bottom, enclosing the filling completely.

8

Optional: For a warm, crispy burrito, place the rolled burritos seam-side down in a preheated nonstick skillet for 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown.

9

Serve immediately, or wrap in foil for meal prep or on-the-go meals. Enjoy your Easy Tex Mex Burritos!
