Once the beef is browned, drain excess fat if necessary. Stir in the chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes to combine flavors.

Prepare Tortillas
Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet over low heat for about 30 seconds on each side or microwave for 15 seconds to make them pliable.

Assemble the Burritos
Place a tortilla flat on a plate. In the center, add approximately 1/4 of the beef mixture, followed by a sprinkle of shredded cheese, a tablespoon of sour cream, a spoonful of salsa, a handful of lettuce, and jalapeños if desired.

Roll the Burrito
Fold the sides of the tortilla inward and then roll from the bottom up to enclose the filling. Make sure to tuck in the sides as you roll. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.

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