Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 450 g ground beef Use lean ground beef for a healthier option.
  • 1 packet taco seasoning Follow package instructions for best results.
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese Feel free to mix different cheeses for a unique taste.
  • 1 cup nacho cheese sauce Warm according to package instructions.
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup diced onions
  • 1/4 cup sliced jalapeños Add more for extra spice.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. Drain the excess fat.
  2. Add the taco seasoning to the beef, following the package instructions to add water, and let simmer until thickened.
  3. Warm the nacho cheese sauce according to package instructions or prepare homemade cheese sauce.
Assembly
  1. Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. In the center, layer the seasoned beef, shredded cheddar cheese, and warmed nacho cheese sauce. Add sour cream, diced tomatoes, onions, and jalapeños.
  2. Fold the sides of the tortilla inward and roll it tightly from the bottom to enclose the filling.
Cooking
  1. For grilled burritos, place them seam-side down in a skillet over medium heat and grill for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and cheese melts.
  2. For baked burritos, preheat the oven to 175°C, place burritos on a baking tray, and bake for 10-15 minutes until heated through.
  3. Slice each burrito in half and serve with extra nacho cheese sauce, sour cream, or your favorite salsa.
