Burrito Filling

Method

Prepare the Filling

  1. 1

    Cook the Beef

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks. Drain excess fat if necessary.

  2. 2

    Sauté Vegetables

    Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and chopped bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté until the vegetables are soft, about 3-5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Beans and Corn

    Stir in the black beans and corn. Mix well to combine all ingredients.

  4. 4

    Season the Mixture

    Add chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Stir to ensure the spices are evenly distributed. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.

Assemble the Burritos

  1. 5

    Prepare Tortillas

    Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

  2. 6

    Fill the Tortillas

    Place a generous scoop of the beef filling onto the center of each tortilla. Top with shredded cheese, a dollop of sour cream, a spoonful of salsa, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.

  3. 7

    Roll the Burritos

    Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it from the bottom up to encase the filling. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

  4. 8

    Serve

    Cut the burritos in half if desired, and serve immediately with extra salsa on the side.
