grilled stuffed burrito knock-off

leftover alert!  cooking for two can make for a lot of leftovers… last time i blogged about refried beans and nachos.  this time, i dressed up the leftovers and created a beef grilled stuffed burrito, just like the ones from taco bell.

• flour tortillas
• refried beans
• seasoned beef
• uncle ben’s ready rice pouch – spanish rice
• shredded cheddar cheese
• sour cream

1. preheat a large size pan to medium heat.
2. prepare the rice pouch (in 90 seconds!) in the microwave.
3. in a large tortilla shell, smooth 1/4 c refried beans in the center of the tortilla, in a rectangular shape.  add a 1/2 c beef, 1/4 c rice, cheese (as desired) and a few dollops of sour cream.
4. fold ends of the tortilla  towards the short ends of the rectangle, and then fold one of the long ends over and roll the burrito.
5. place seam side down in a pan, and brown the tortilla, flip and repeat on the other side.
6. cut burritos on a diagonal. serve with southwest ranch (recipe below).

southwest ranch

• 1 part ranch dressing
• 1 part salsa

1. whisk both ingredients together with a fork.  serve with a southwest salad or any mexican dish.

enjoy!
