Smothered Chile Colorado Burritos

This amazing meal is done in the crock pot! It doesn't get much easier or delicious than this! It is fantastic!
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lbs. stew meat, steak, roast...i use whatever i have on hand or had the best sale
- 1 (19 oz) can red enchilada sauce
- 2 beef bullion cubes
- refried beans either from a can or the recipe I provided you with
- 5-7 burrito size tortillas
- 1 cup shredded cheese more or less depend ending on personal preference
Instructions
- Put beef pieces into crock pot. Top with
crushed bouillon cubes and enchilada sauce. Cook on low for 7-8 hours,
or until meat is very tender.
- When beef is done (very tender and flakes off when stirred), taste and add more salt, if desired.
- Make sure beans are warmed through. You can use canned refried beans or the recipe I provided you with.
- Smear
about 2 heaping spoons worth of beans on to the center of each
tortilla. Add about 1/2 cup of beef, give or take, and roll into a
burrito.
- Place burritos into a greased 9x13 baking pan until
it fills the pan. Pour some of extra sauce over the tops of the
burritos to smother them. Place cheese on top.
- Broil until cheese becomes bubbly, approx. 2-4 minutes.
- This recipe makes about 5-7 burritos depending on how big you make them.
