Beef & Bean Burritos

These are so much better than the ones you can buy, and they are quick and easy to make. They can be eaten out of hand or, my favorite, placed in a baking dish, covered with spaghetti sauce and cheese and baked until hot and bubbling.

 

    2 T oil
    1 onion, chopped
    2 garlic cloves, minced
    2 lb ground beef
    1 T chili powder (or to taste)
    1 t cumin (or to taste)
    Salt and pepper to taste
    8 oz can tomato sauce
    31 oz can refried beans
    12 large Flour tortillas

    Saute onion in oil until tender. Add beef and garlic and cook until beef is no longer pink. Drain. Add chili powder, cumin & other seasonings. Stir in tomato sauce and simmer 5 minutes. Add refried beans and cook and stir until well blended. Set aside to cool completely.

    Divide meat mixture into 12 portions. Soften tortillas, according to package instructions, and place a portion of meat on each. Roll up, burrito style.

    These may be frozen as follows. Place seam side down on a cookie sheet and freeze until frozen. Wrap each individually and return to freezer.
