While you’re cooking ground beef for tacos, you might as well cook up a little more and make this easy freezer recipe for Beef and Bean Burritos.
Beef & Bean Freezer Burritos
- 1 can refried beans
- 1/2 pound ground beef
- 1 package tortillas (when I have time, we make our own tortillas with this recipe)
- 1/2 cup salsa
- Shredded cheese
1) Combine the beans, ground beef, and salsa in a bowl.
2) Place a few spoonfuls of the mixture onto a tortilla. Sprinkle with cheese (if desired). Fold in sides and roll up the tortilla.
3) Place the burritos on a pan (no edges touching) and place in the freezer for an hour (flash freeze). Put the frozen burritos in a freezer-safe container or bag.
When ready to use: Thaw in the refrigerator overnight. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 15-20 minutes (or until heated through). These will be slightly crunchy! You can also microwave each burrito for a few minutes before serving.
I serve these with lettuce, tomatoes, and salsa on top. You could also add sour cream or cheese, too.
