Method

Burrito Filling Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Ground 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

    Add Vegetables

    Add chopped onion, minced garlic, and diced red bell pepper to the skillet with the ground beef. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, until the vegetables are softened.

  3. 3

    Mix in Beans and Corn

    Stir in the black beans and corn. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until heated through.

  4. 4

    Season the Mixture

    Add cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and let everything cook together for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat.

Burrito Assembly

  1. 5

    Prepare the Tortillas

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

  2. 6

    Assemble the Burritos

    On each tortilla, place a generous scoop of the filling mixture in the center. Top with cheddar cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and fresh cilantro as desired.

  3. 7

    Wrap the Burrito

    Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll from the bottom up tightly to create a burrito. Ensure the filling is enclosed.

  4. 8

    Serve

    Cut the burritos in half if desired and serve immediately with additional sour cream and guacamole on the side.
