Description
A cheesy, beef-filled burrito wrapped in a golden, crispy grilled cheese crust. The ultimate comfort food mash-up everyone will love.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 packet taco seasoning mix
- 2/3 cup water
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (divided)
- 1/2 cup sour cream (optional)
- 1/2 cup salsa or pico de gallo (optional)
- 1/2 cup guacamole (optional)
Instructions
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef until browned, about 6–8 minutes. Drain excess grease if needed.
- Stir in taco seasoning and water. Simmer for 2–3 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the beef.
- Lay tortillas flat and sprinkle 1/4 cup cheese in the center of each. Add beef mixture and optional fillings, then fold tightly into burritos.
- Heat a clean skillet over medium. Sprinkle a layer of cheese directly in the pan and place burrito seam-side down. Press gently and cook until golden and crispy, about 2–3 minutes per side.
- Remove from heat, let rest briefly, then slice in half. Serve warm with extra salsa, sour cream, or guacamole.
Notes
Best served fresh, but leftovers can be stored in the fridge up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet to restore crispiness.
