Weeknight Tex-Mex Burritos (Or Tacos or Taco-Burgers)

Created by Marramamba on August 24, 2015

1 can (4 1/2 ounce) chopped green chilies
1 package (11.5 ounce) flour tortillas (8 tortillas, or 8 taco shells or 8 hamburger buns)
TOPPINGS
Shredded cheddar cheese or colby cheese
Chopped tomato
Shredded lettuce
Salsa
Guacamole
Sour cream
Chopped onion

Step 1: In large skillet, brown ground beef over medium to medium-high heat. Drain off fat.
Step 2: Add in all spices. Stir in water, cooking over medium heat until water cooks off. (Water helps ensure even distribution of spices throughout meat).
Step 3: Stir in refried beans and green chilies. Heat through. Adjust seasonings to taste.
Step 4: Burritos: Warm flour tortillas in microwave or in oven. Spread meat and bean mixture on each flour tortilla. Garnish with preferred toppings. Enjoy.
Step 5: Tacos: Toast taco shells in oven according to package directions. (Note: toasting the taco shells is a MUST). Spoon meat and bean mixture into each taco shell. Garnish with preferred toppings.
Step 6: Taco-burgers: Toast hamburger buns in oven until light golden brown. Spread meat and bean mixture onto bottom half of buns. If making taco-burgers, you may want to substitute sliced cheese (such as American). Garnish with preferred toppings.
