Description
A delicious and cheesy Grilled Cheese Burrito inspired by Taco Bell, perfect for making at home.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 ounce packet taco seasoning
- ⅔ cup water
- 15 ounce can nacho cheese sauce
- 4 burrito size flour tortillas
- 2 cups Mexican or Spanish rice
- 4 tablespoons store-bought Taco Bell Creamy Chipotle Sauce
- 4 tablespoons sour cream
- 1 cup tortilla strips
- 2 cups Mexican blend cheese, shredded
Instructions
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it into small pieces as it cooks. Drain off the excess fat.
- Reduce the heat to medium, add the taco seasoning and water to the beef, and stir. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until the liquid has thickened. Set aside.
- Lay out each tortilla. Spread a layer of nacho cheese sauce in the center, top with 1/4 of the taco meat, 1/4 of the rice, drizzle 1 tablespoon of chipotle sauce, 1 tablespoon of sour cream, and a handful of tortilla strips.
- Fold the burrito by bringing up the bottom edge, folding in the sides, and rolling tightly. Make sure the seam is on the bottom to keep it secure.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of shredded cheese directly onto the skillet.
- Place one burrito, seam-side down, on the cheese. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese has melted, browned, and stuck to the burrito.
- Carefully lift the burrito with a spatula, sprinkle another ¼ cup of cheese on the skillet, and flip the burrito over to repeat the process on the other side.
- Once both sides are golden and crispy, remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Repeat with the remaining burritos. Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
- For extra flavor, consider adding jalapeños or other toppings of your choice.
- These burritos can be made ahead and frozen for quick meals later.
- Adjust the spice level by modifying the amount of chipotle sauce.
