Method

  2. Prepare the Beans: If using canned beans, drain and rinse 1 can of beans. Heat them in a separate pan for 3-5 minutes.
  3. Warm the Tortillas: Heat the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for 15-20 seconds to make them more pliable.
  4. Assemble the Burritos: On each tortilla, add a portion of beef, beans, shredded cheese, and any other toppings you prefer (sour cream, salsa, lettuce, etc.). Fold in the sides and roll the burrito.
