Loaded Beef and Bean Burritos




Ingredients:
1 lb Lean Ground Beef
1 Clove Garlic, minced
2 tsp Chili Powder
1 tsp Dried leaf oregano
1/2 tsp Cumin
1/2 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 Can (16oz) Refried Beans
1 C Enchilada Sauce
6 Flour Tortillas
Shredded Lettuce
Shredded Cheese ( we used Colby Jack )
1 Tomato, diced
Brown Rice
3 Tbl butter

Instructions:
1. In a large skillet, cook the beef and garlic over medium heat, about 10 minutes.
2. Drain well
3. Add Chili Powder, oregano, cumin, salt and pepper, simmer for 10 minutes
4. Add refried beans and half of enchilada sauce, heat through
5. Wrap tortillas in foil and place in a 350 degree oven for about 10 minutes
6. Cook the brown rice, and throw in the butter and some chili powder and/or cumin
7. Spoon beef and bean mixture and rice onto a tortilla, roll tightly and place seam side down on a plate. Garnish with sour cream, cheese, and lettuce. Pour remaining enchilada sauce over top


Makes about 6 burritos.

 I like to double the recipe and roll extra burritos in a paper towel, and then tinfoil, and then place in a ziploc bag and put them in the freezer, for quick, on the run snacks.
