Baked Steak Burritos

This is one of my favorite ways to make burritos. I'm not a big fan of enchilada sauce (I like the tortillas to have more crunch), so I don't use the whole can. And while the original recipe said it made 12, I've never gotten more than 8.



Baked Steak Burritos



1/4 cup butter
1 package (1 oz) taco seasoning mix
1 1/2 lb boneless beef sirloin tip steak, cut into thin bite-sized strips
1 can (16 oz) refried beans
8 flour tortillas (6 inch)
2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
3 green onions, thinly sliced
1 can (10 oz) red enchilada sauce
1 cup Mexican cheese blend, shredded
Shredded lettuce
Sour cream


Heat oven to 400°F.

Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat.

Stir in taco seasoning mix.

Add beef strips; cook and stir 5 to 6 minutes or until of desired doneness. Drain.

Meanwhile, place refried beans in microwave-safe dish. Microwave on HIGH for 2 minutes, stirring once or twice.

Spread each tortilla with refried beans to within 1/4 inch of edge.

Top each with beef, Cheddar cheese and green onions.

Roll up, folding in sides.



Place, seam side down, in ungreased 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish.

Pour enchilada sauce over burritos.

Sprinkle with Mexican cheese blend.

Bake at 400°F. for 7 to 12 minutes or until burritos are thoroughly heated and cheese is melted.

Top with shredded lettuce and sour cream.

Makes 8 servings.

Serve with: Knorr Spanish Rice

Freezer Meal: You can assemble the burritos, then freeze before baking. When ready to make, defrost and bake as normal.
