Instructions
1️⃣ Prepare the Beef Filling
In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and fully cooked.
Drain any excess fat.
Stir in the taco seasoning and water, then let it simmer for about 5 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens.
2️⃣ Mix the Chipotle Mayo
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and chipotle sauce until smooth.
This creamy, smoky sauce adds a bold kick to your burrito!
3️⃣ Assemble the Burritos
Lay out each tortilla.
Spread a generous amount of nacho cheese sauce in the center.
Add ¼ of the seasoned ground beef and ½ cup of Mexican rice.
Drizzle with chipotle mayo and add sour cream (if using).
Sprinkle tortilla strips for an extra crunch.
4️⃣ Fold the Burritos
Fold the sides of the tortilla inward.
Roll it up tightly from the bottom, securing all the fillings inside.
5️⃣ Grill the Burritos with Cheese
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Sprinkle ¼ cup of shredded Colby Jack cheese directly onto the pan.
Place the burrito seam-side down on top of the cheese.
Cook until the cheese melts and forms a golden crust.
Flip the burrito, add another ¼ cup of cheese, and repeat on the other side.
Remove and set aside. Repeat for the remaining burritos.
6️⃣ Serve and Enjoy!
