We love burritos and these are a combo of some of our favorite things all rolled into one. Truth be told ... It's all about the rice. Customize these to your taste .. make it spicier or use chicken in place of beef. I use small tortillas for these because they are so filling. My husband loves to double up the tortilla with a layer of cheese in the middle. He sprinkles cheese on one .. lays another on top then nukes until the cheese is melted. It glues the 2 tortillas together and honestly it is really tasty that way. Serve with some crunchy chips, salsa and a Margarita !

How To Make deluxe burrito by maggie

  • Step 1
    Put your rice into a bowl and stir in the taco seasoning until it is well blended. Add the diced green chilies and stir. Heat the rice and set aside.
  • Step 2
    Cook the ground beef until it is done and drain well. Return to pan and add the taco seasoning mix and stir.
  • Step 3
    To make the burrito lay your tortilla on a paper towel. Put a thin layer of shredded cheese on the tortilla and then using a spoon or spatula, "frost" the tortilla with warm refried beans to within about 1/2" of the edges.
  • Step 4
    Sprinkle ground beef over the beans then cover the beans with the rice mixture.
  • Step 5
    Sprinkle a small amount of cheese over the rice then pop the burrito into the microwave for a few seconds to soften the cheese.
