Categories     Beans

Time 8h15m

Yield 1 stack, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 (1 1/2 ounce) packages dry enchilada mix
3 cups water
2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
salt
2 lbs lean ground beef

2 jalapeno peppers, seeded, minced or 2 mild green chilies
5 -6 large flour tortillas (8 inch)
4 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese
1 (12 ounce) can refried beans

Steps:

  • First, make foil "handles." Fold a 30-inch long piece of foil in half lengthwise. Place in bottom of a slow cooker with both ends hanging over top edge of cooker.The foil strip will make it much easier to remove the burrito stack when done.
  • Lightly grease crockpot. In saucepan, combine the first six ingredients; simmer for 20 minutes over low heat. In a large skillet over medium heat, brown ground beef with onion, bell pepper, and minced jalapeno or mild peppers. Drain off fat. Stir about 1/3 of sauce mix into the browned beef mixture.
  • Spoon a small amount of sauce into bottom of the slow cooker.
  • Spread a small amount of refried beans over one of the flour tortillas. Place the tortilla on top of sauce in Crock Pot, tearing to fit if necessary. Spoon meat mixture over tortilla and then top with a small amount of the shredded cheese. Continue layering until tortillas are used or within an inch of top of crockpot. Cover and cook on LOW 6 to 8 hours or on HIGH for 3-4 hours. Lift burritos out by the foil handles and place on serving plate. Cut in wedges; garnish with chopped tomato, shredded lettuce, sour cream, sliced ripe olives, or your own favorite combination. Serves 4 to 6.

RANCH SALSA BURRITO STACK'EMS



Ranch Salsa Burrito Stack'ems image

I made these for my boyfriend even though he is not the biggest fan of Mexican flared foods. I keep the heat pretty light for him because I'm an extreme spice kind of gal...and he's very mild. It seems like a lot of steps, but I really broke it down so give it a go before you look the other way!! If you cook the shells before...

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 17

TO MAKE THE BURRITO INGREDIENTS
1 1/2 lb beef, stir fry sliced
1 pkg taco seasoning
1/3 c water
1/2 yellow pepper, cut into strips
1/2 red pepper, cut into strips
1/2 white onion, cut into strips
THE SIDES
1 pkg spanish rice
5-6 lettuce leafs, chopped
RANCH SALSA
2 Tbsp ranch dressing
4 Tbsp salsa
TO MAKE THE SHELLS
pkg large tortillas
garlic salt
cupcake tin

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat your oven to 300* and cut your tortillas into circles by using a cookie cutter or a large glass. I used the rim of a coffee mug. Make sure that your circles are bigger than the circles of your cupcake tin. Press the tortilla into the mold and place in the oven for 25 minutes. I was able to get 5 circles out of one large tortilla.
  • 2. With the remaining bits of tortilla, I sliced up and sprinkled with a dash of olive oil and a couple sprinkles of the left over taco seasoning and garlic salt. I then put them on some tin foil and put them in the oven with the shells.
  • 3. Put the beef slices into a deep fry pan and cook about half way through. While this is cooking start making your Spanish rice per directions on package.
  • 4. When the beef is half cooked turn to low and WITHOUT draining add the peppers, onions and half the package of taco seasoning. Let this cook slowly while your rice is cooking. Also add the 1/3 cup of water.
  • 5. Mix up the ranch salsa, it is 1 tablespoon of ranch to 2 tablespoons of salsa.
  • 6. Stuff a shell with rice and then a dollop of the ranch salsa. Take another shell and put the beef and veggie mix in it with some lettuce, another helping of ranch salsa and you can top with the tortilla strips you also baked. Stack the beef stuffed shell on top of the rice shell, it should stick nicely.
  • 7. Serve with an ice cold Margarita and enjoy!!
  • 8. *These are fun because you can bite into them together or you can take them off in layers!!*

Tips:

  • Use a variety of fillings. The more variety you have, the more interesting your burrito stack will be. Some popular fillings include rice, beans, grilled chicken, steak, roasted vegetables, and cheese.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment. There are no hard and fast rules when it comes to making burrito stacks. Get creative and try new things. You might be surprised at what you come up with.
  • Make sure your fillings are well-seasoned. This will help to bring out the flavor of your burrito stack. Use a variety of spices and herbs to create a flavorful filling.
  • Use a good quality tortilla. The tortilla is the foundation of your burrito stack, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for tortillas that are fresh and pliable.
  • Heat your tortillas before assembling your burrito stack. This will help to make them more pliable and easier to work with.
  • Be careful not to overstuff your burrito stack. You want your burrito stack to be able to hold together without falling apart. If you overstuff it, it will be difficult to eat.
  • Serve your burrito stack with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include salsa, guacamole, sour cream, and cheese.

Conclusion:

Burrito stacks are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They're perfect for a quick lunch or dinner, and they can also be served as a party appetizer. With a little creativity, you can create a burrito stack that is sure to please everyone.
