Ingredients
  

1 lb ground beef

1 cup cooked white rice

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

1 packet Taco seasoning

1 can (15 oz) refried beans

4 large flour tortillas

1/2 cup sour cream

1/2 cup salsa

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp onion powder

Optional toppings: diced tomatoes, chopped green onions, jalapeños

Instructions
 

Prepare the Beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula until no longer pink.

    Season the Meat: Drain any excess fat. Add taco seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, and a splash of water (about 1/4 cup) to the beef. Stir well and let it simmer for about 5 minutes until the seasoning is fully absorbed.

      Warm the Refried Beans: In a separate small saucepan, gently heat the refried beans on low, stirring occasionally.

        Assemble the Burritos: Lay out a flour tortilla on a clean surface. Spread about 2 tablespoons of refried beans down the center. Add a layer of cooked rice, followed by the seasoned ground beef, and top off with a mix of cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese. Add a spoonful of sour cream and salsa on top for extra flavor.

          Roll Them Up: Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top, ensuring all fillings are securely wrapped inside.

            Heat the Burritos: In the same skillet used for the beef, place the burrito seam-side down. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until the tortilla is golden and crispy. Flip and repeat on the other side.

              Serve: Cut the burritos in half and serve warm. Garnish with additional toppings like diced tomatoes, chopped green onions, and jalapeños if desired.
