Ingredients

  • 2 large flour tortillas 10"
  • 3/4 cup pork carnitas substitute seasoned chicken, shredded or ground beef if desired
  • 1/2 cup refried beans
  • 1/2 cup Mexican or Spanish rice we recommend Zatarain's
  • 3/4 cup shredded white cheddar cheese divided
  • 1 cup green chile enchilada sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat: Set your oven to 375° F (190° C).
  • Prepare the Fillings: Warm the tortillas to make them pliable. Mix the rice and beans, spreading them equally onto the tortillas' center. Divide the meat equally and top with half the cheese.
  • Roll the Burritos: Fold the sides and roll tightly.
  • Bake: Pour half the enchilada sauce into an 8x8" baking dish. Place burritos seam-side down, cover with remaining sauce, and bake for 10 minutes.
  • Final Touch: Sprinkle the remaining cheese and bake for 3-5 minutes until melted.

Notes

Meat Options: Any meat works, just season it well.
Sauce Variations: Red enchilada sauce is a tasty substitute.
