Tex Mex Beef And Chorizo Burritos Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and grease a 9 by 13-inch baking pan.
• In a large skillet, cook the beef until mostly browned. Stir in onions, chiles and garlic and cook until onions have softened. Add the tomatoes, oregano and cumin and cook until the tomatoes have thickened to form a sauce about 10 minutes.
• Heat the tortillas so that they are pliable--either over a gas flame or in a microwave oven.
• Divide meat among the tortillas, about 1/4 cup per tortilla, and sprinkle each with cheese. Roll up tortillas and place in baking dish and top with more grated cheese. Bake for 10 minutes. Garnish with a thick salsa, sour cream and chopped cilantro if desired.

Steps:

• In large skillet, brown ground beef over medium to medium-high heat. Drain off fat.
• Add in all spices. Stir in water, cooking over medium heat until water cooks off. (Water helps ensure even distribution of spices throughout meat).
• Stir in refried beans and green chilies. Heat through. Adjust seasonings to taste.
• Burritos: Warm flour tortillas in microwave or in oven. Spread meat and bean mixture on each flour tortilla. Garnish with preferred toppings. Enjoy.
• 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.
• 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.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease 13x-9-inch pan. In large skillet, cook ground beef, potatoes, onion and chiles over medium-high heat for 5 to 7 minutes or until beef is thoroughly cooked and vegetables are tender, stirring frequently. Drain.
• Add beans, salt and pepper; mix well. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Spoon 1/2 cup beef mixture in center of each tortilla. Sprinkle each with heaping 2 tablespoons cheese. Roll up each tortilla, enclosing filling; fold ends under. Place seam side down in greased pan; cover with foil.
• Bake at 350°F. for 10 to 12 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Serve burritos with salsa and sour cream.
