Burritos are fantastic, hearty and delicious! Especially with homemade pico de gallo and guacamole, which I made with indoor-grown jalapeno peppers... |
Servings: (4)
Prep Time: 15 min.
Cook Time: 15 min.
INGREDIENTS
***Meat mixture
· 1 lb. extra lean venison burger (or moose, buffalo, or beef )
· 1 package taco seasoning (click link for homemade)
· ¾ cup water
· 1 (14.5 oz.) can of refried beans
***Garnish
· 2 cups cheddar and/or Mexican blend shredded cheese
· ¼ head iceberg lettuce, shredded
· 2 tomatoes, diced
· 2 green onions, thinly sliced
· 1 cup sour cream
Homemade pico de gallo- Um-Um Good! |
· 1 avocado, sliced into diagonal strips
· 4 (10”) flour tortillas
METHOD
In a large skillet over medium heat brown burger. Add taco seasoning with water and simmer until liquid cooks down, about 7 minutes. Add refried beans and fold in, just until warm and incorporated; reduce heat to keep warm.
Meanwhile, prepare garnishments by placing wet ingredients in small bowls or ramekins, and others on a separate large platter and/or in small decorative bowls or plates.
Preheat a dry large non-stick skillet to medium heat; once heated place flour tortilla in dry skillet until it begins to slightly bubble, turn over and do the same on the other side (this process removes the “flour & tangy” taste). [In our house each person does their own.] Place warm tortilla on plate by adding a couple large spoonfuls of meat mixture diagonally across the center and top with garnish ingredients in the order listed above. Roll up as in photograph and enjoy!!!
VENDOR STYLE: Wrap inside a square of tinfoil, making “TO GO” burritos—these are excellent warm or at room temperature—out on the boat, at camp, driving out the road or wherever your outing takes you...

We actually end up craving these burritos about once a month during the winter, and of course more often in the summer...I've been making these for almost 25 years ;-)
Good one, Sandra. Thanks for linking it in to Food on Friday. Cheers
Thanks Carole, my pleasure ;)
