Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 packet taco seasoning (low sodium)
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chiles, undrained (like Rotel)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 8 large flour tortillas
- Optional toppings: sour cream, salsa, guacamole, chopped cilantro, diced onions
Instructions
- Brown the Beef. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain off any excess grease.
- Season the Beef. Stir in the taco seasoning and water. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, or until the liquid has reduced.
- Add Beans and Tomatoes. Stir in the black beans and diced tomatoes and green chiles. Cook for another 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until everything is heated through.
- Warm the Tortillas. Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet, microwave, or oven.
- Assemble the Burritos. Lay a warm tortilla on a flat surface. Sprinkle cheese, beef mixture, and more cheese.
- Roll the Burritos. Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then fold up the bottom over the filling and roll tightly to enclose.
- Melt the Cheese (Optional). Grill in a skillet or bake in a preheated oven until the cheese is melted and gooey.
