Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
- 2 cloves Minced garlic
- 2 cups Enchilada sauce
- 1 packet Taco seasoning
- 2 cups Cooked white or brown rice
- 1 cup Canned black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup Canned corn, drained
- 6 pieces Large flour tortillas
- 2 cups Shredded Mexican cheese blend
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped (optional)
- 0.25 cup Sliced jalapeños (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, sauté the diced onion until translucent, about 3 minutes, then add the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks. Drain any excess grease.
Stir in the taco seasoning and 1 cup of enchilada sauce. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, then remove from heat.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked rice, black beans, and corn. Mix well.
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish. Spread 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce evenly on the bottom of the dish.
Assemble the burrito filling by dividing the rice mixture and beef mixture evenly among the flour tortillas. Add a small handful of shredded cheese to each and roll them into burritos, tucking in the ends.
Place the rolled burritos seam-side down in the casserole dish. Pour the remaining enchilada sauce evenly over the top of the burritos and sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese over everything.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Serve topped with sour cream, chopped cilantro, and sliced jalapeños if desired.
