Burrito Filling

Green Sauce

Rice and Beans

Method

Prepare Burrito Filling

  1. 1

    Cook Ground Beef

    In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until it is fully cooked, about 7-10 minutes. Drain any excess fat.

  2. 2

    Add Taco Seasoning

    Stir in the taco seasoning and follow package instructions to add water if required. Simmer for 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Prepare Tortillas

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

  4. 4

    Assemble Burritos

    Spread a layer of refried beans on each tortilla, followed by a portion of the ground beef mixture, a dollop of sour cream, and a handful of shredded cheese. Roll the tortillas tightly to form burritos.

Make Green Sauce

  1. 5

    Blend Ingredients

    In a blender, combine tomatillos, cilantro, garlic cloves, jalapeño, lime juice, and salt. Blend until smooth.

  2. 6

    Taste and Adjust

    Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with more salt or lime juice as needed.

Prepare Rice and Beans

  1. 7

    Cook Rice

    In a saucepan, combine white rice and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until rice is tender.

  2. 8

    Sauté Onion

    In a separate skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

  3. 9

    Add Black Beans

    Add the canned black beans (drained and rinsed) to the onions, then stir in cumin. Heat through for about 5 minutes.

Assemble Wet Burrito Plate

  1. 10

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. 11

    Place Burritos in Baking Dish

    Place the assembled burritos in a baking dish. Pour the green sauce evenly over the burritos and sprinkle with remaining shredded cheese.

  3. 12

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  4. 13
