Burrito Filling

Burrito Assembly

Method

Burrito Filling

  1. 1

    Cook the Ground Beef

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 8-10 minutes. Drain excess grease.

  2. 2

    Add Seasoning

    Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the cooked beef. Stir to combine, and add 1/4 cup of water. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the water has evaporated and the beef is well-coated with seasoning.

  3. 3

    Combine Other Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked beef, black beans (drained and rinsed), corn, and half of the Mexican cheese blend. Mix until evenly combined.

  4. 4

    Chop Cilantro

    Finely chop the fresh cilantro and fold into the burrito filling mixture. Set aside.

Burrito Assembly

  1. 5

    Prepare Tortillas

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

  2. 6

    Assemble Burritos

    On each tortilla, add a generous scoop of the burrito filling, a slice of avocado, a handful of lettuce, a spoonful of sour cream, and a drizzle of salsa.

  3. 7

    Wrap the Burrito

    Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards, then roll from the bottom up to create a tight burrito. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.

  4. 8

    Serve

    Cut each burrito in half and serve with extra salsa on the side.
