Burrito Filling

Chile Con Queso

Chile Gravy Sauce

Method

Burrito Filling

  1. 1

    Cook the Meat

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add ground beef, seasoned chicken, and pork. Cook until browned and fully cooked, about 8-10 minutes. Drain excess fat.

  2. 2

    Season the Meat

    Sprinkle taco seasoning mix over the cooked meat. Stir well and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the meat is well coated and the spices are fragrant.

Chile Con Queso

  1. 3

    Prepare the Cheese Sauce

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine Velveeta cheese, diced green chiles, and milk. Stir constantly until the cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth. Set aside.

Chile Gravy Sauce

  1. 4

    Make the Gravy

    In a separate saucepan, combine dried chili powder and ground cumin. Toast for 1 minute over medium heat until fragrant. Add beef broth and stir well.

  2. 5

    Thicken the Gravy

    In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water until smooth. Gradually add this mixture to the saucepan with the broth, stirring until the gravy thickens, about 3-5 minutes.

Assemble the Burritos

  1. 6

    Fill the Tortillas

    Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. On each tortilla, add a portion of the cooked meat mixture, a generous scoop of chile con queso, and drizzle with chile gravy sauce.

  2. 7

    Wrap the Burritos

    Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

Serve

  1. 8

    Plate the Dish

    Serve the burritos with a side of refried beans and Spanish rice. Drizzle any remaining chile gravy over the top for extra flavor.
