TASTY BURRITOS
My cousin is of Mexican heritage, and I've watched her make this crunchy beef burrito recipe for years. The very first time I made them for my own family, they instantly became a favorite meal. They're even better warmed up the next day in the microwave. -Debi Lane, Chattanooga, Tennessee

BURRITO ULTIMO
We made this last night and really enjoyed it,even had it again for lunch today. They are filled with re-fried beans, beef, Mexican spiced rice, jalapenos, cheese and all the other toppings/fillers that you want. This recipe is also good since it serves 8-10 with only 1lb of meat! You can use either ground turkey as we do or ground beef, doesn't really matter. Hope you like this as much as we do.
