Burritos are a class of food onto themselves. There are so many possibilities between meats, cheeses, toppings and more. I also love them because they are all wrapped up in one friendly package, thanks to our friend the tortilla.
Check out this recipe for Tex Mex burritos. It's sure to be an instant favorite. This meal is definitely for the hungry! Serve these seriously filling burritos, with beans, meat, potatoes, chiles, and spicy salsa.
1 lb. lean ground beef
1 1/4 cups finely chopped peeled potatoes
1/2 cup chopped onion (1 medium)
2 fresh or canned jalapeño chiles, seeded, chopped
1 (15-oz.) can spicy chili beans, undrained
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
10 (10-inch) spinach or flour tortillas
6 oz. (1 1/2 cups) shredded Monterey Jack or Cheddar cheese
Old El Paso® Thick 'n Chunky salsa, if desired
Sour cream, if desired
