Easy One-Skillet Ground Beef Burrito

Fun, easy, one pot recipe! Perfect for families and crazy weeknights! It’s customizable if you want it to be; you can substitute pinto or refried beans if you prefer. You can add onions or peppers to the beef sauce. You can add olives, jalapeños or green chilies to the simmer/saute. All will turn out with good results. Me personally, I sautéd onions with the beef. When I added all the ingredients in step 2, I also added a 4os can of jalapeños and a 4oz can sliced black olives. I simmered on low for 15 min before stirring in the tortilla strips - simmered another 5 minutes and then added the cheese. When I added the cheese, I covered and turned off the heat. I let sit for 5 more min so all the cheese would be ooey gooey melty. This was very good and again, so easy! Thanks Aaron!

I used ground Turkey instead of beef. I also cooked onions with the ground Turkey and added sweet corn. We topped ours with plain Greek yogurt instead of sour cream. Easy and delicious!

I have never made a recipe that uses strips of soft tortilla inside like this, so I wasn’t sure what to expect, but it sounded good and easy. After trying it, I can tell you that this is a keeper! So quick and easy to make, delicious, and the tortillas were a surprisingly fun addition.
