CHILI CHEESE BURRITOS
I like to make a big pot of chili up and freeze it in meal-sized portions for later. We don't always like to eat chili plain, so I doctored up some chili and made burritos for a quick dinner. It's easy and doesn't require all the fresh ingredients that tacos would. If your chili is pretty soupy, you might have to cook it down a little longer than called for in the recipe. You can heat your tortillas in the oven if you wrap them in tinfoil, but the microwave is just so much easier, in my opinion.

Steps:
- Combine chili, green chilies, taco seasoning, rice, and water in a medium sized pot.
- Heat uncovered over low heat about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to keep from sticking to bottom of pan. Near the end of cooking time, you will have to stir nearly constantly as the chili will have cooked down to a nice thick consistency.
- Taste and make sure rice is cooked to your preferred softness and check thickness of chili to be sure it will stay in a tortilla.
- Warm tortillas for several seconds in microwave, spread several tablespoons of chili mixture in center of tortillas, add cheese, salsa, and sour cream to taste, and fold into burrito.
- Serve with chips and salsa or green salad.

CHILI VERDE FOR BURRITOS
My DH taught me how to make Chili Verde (one of his favorites), but over time, we both thought the recipe was kinda blah. So I looked up recipes here on Zaar, and in various cookbooks, and the result is what I'm posting. It's sort of a combination of Chili Verde *and* Salsa Verde recipes. If you wanted to have a green chili stew, just cut up a couple of potatoes, and double the tomatoes. Anyway, DH loves this version much better than what we started with, and so do I.... hope you do to :) PS: I used pork tenderloin, because it's boneless, has less fat, and is really easy to work with, and in my area, frequently on sale for a 1.99 a pound. But you can use whatever cut you prefer.

Steps:
- Place pork loin in freezer for about 30 minutes - this will make it easier to cut. Trim all visible fat, and cut into cubes - about 1 inch or so.
- Heat oil in dutch oven, and add pork. Cook til all sides are lightly brown. Remove pork with a slotted spoon, onto a plate or small bowl.
- Add onion to pan and cook until lightly browned and add garlic.
- While onion is browning, put the almonds in a blender or food processor and pulse until almonds are the consistency of meal (don't go to far or you'll have almond butter). Add tomatillos, 1 can of the green chilis, and the jalapeno. Puree for about 1 minute.
- When onions and garlic are done, add tomatillo mixture to pan.
- Season mixture with cumin and chili powder. I probably use about 4 to 5 tablespoons cumin and 1 tablespoon chili powder. It's really just up to you and what you prefer.
- Return pork to pan, add chicken broth and bring to a slow boil. Cover and reduce heat to simmer.
- Cook covered for about 1 hour. Uncover and continue cooking until liquid reduces to your preference.
- Make burritos with the condiments you and your family prefer.

BEAN & CHEESE BURRITOS W/ TEX-MEX CHILI SAUCE
I'm addicted to Tex Mex, and it's slowly but surely clogging my arteries. I'm told these are called "wet burritos," although I have yet to find a Tex Mex restaurant that calls them that. Anyhow, here's my lower in fat version of a dish I simply can't live without. You can use pre-prepared beans and rice or give it your own flair by making them from scratch. Add or omit ingredients as you like to create your own perfect burrito!

I really like fast food chili cheese burritos (I know, scary), but these are even faster and taste just the same! Literally 1 minute to make too! Well not quite, but REALLY close!

Steps:
- Take one flour tortilla (I use taco size, my husband takes burrito size), put it on a microwaveable plate and spread a layer of refried beans in the middle of the tortilla leaving LOTS of room free on the sides for easy rolling.
- I put on about 2T, my husband maybe 3T of beans.
- (I just use a butter knife to scoop the beans out of the can and spread it around a little).
- Pour a strip of taco sauce long ways down the beans, about 1-2T.
- Grab a handful of cheese and put on top of the beans and sauce, about 1/4 cup.
- Microwave 30 seconds on high.
- Roll it up like a burrito (make it secure!) and microwave 20-30 seconds more.
- Repeat for remaining tortillas, or for however many you can eat.
- All ingredients can stay in fridge for later.
- Enjoy while piping hot!
LEFTOVER CHILI BREAKFAST BURRITOS

Steps:
- 1. Scramble up some eggs, mix with a little water or milk to make them fluffy. Or, just scramble them and season with salt and pepper.
- 2. In a saucepan or microwave, heat your leftover chili.
- 3. Zap the flour tortillas in the microwave for about 20 seconds to make them soft.
- 4. Place a tortilla on a microwave-safe plate. Spoon some chili onto the middle of the tortilla being careful to leave enough tortilla edge to fold up into your burrito. (I would suggest using a slotted spoon. You don't want too much soupiness or it will soak right through the tortilla and make it doughy and fall apart.)
- 5. Layer some scrambled eggs on top of the chili. Then top with shredded cheese. Dollop with sour cream.
- 6. Roll up into burrito.
- 7. Put into microwave for about 30 seconds or long enough to melt the cheese.

Steps:
- To make bean filling:.
- Place beans in a large pot, cover with water, and soak overnight. Drain soaking water; rinse beans well and return to pot. Add 6 cups water, onions, and a pinch of salt, if desired. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, cover, and simmer, adding more water if necessary, until beans are soft, about 3 hours. Drain and mash beans with a potato masher or electric mixer. Stir in jalapenos, garlic, onion, spices, and corn kernels. Taste and adjust seasonings. Keep warm.
- To make gravy:.
- Combine minced chili pepper, spices, cilantro(or parsley), onion, garlic, tomato sauce, and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine flour and olive oil, mixing until smooth. Whisk slowly into gravy mixture; return to a boil and cook, stirring frequently, until sauce thickens. Salt to taste.
- Warm tortillas one at a time for a few seconds over a hot burner. Place a small amount of beans in the center of each tortilla and roll up. Cover with Red Chili Gravy and garnish with green onions. Serve immediately. Serves 10.
CHILI CHICKEN BURRITOS
Steps:
- Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees. Coat chicken thighs with olive oil and place in baking pan. Cook in oven for 30-45 minutes, until chicken is browned through. Detach chicken and discard skin and bones. Chop meat very finely, until no chunks remain. Add 1 tbsp. olive oil to frying pan and cook chicken on low-medium heat for 3 minutes. Add salt. In bowl, mash kidney beans into a thick paste and mix. Add bean mixture, jalapenos, chili powder, and cayenne pepper to frying pan, stirring. Cook for 3-4 minutes. Add salsa, cheddar, red pepper, and half of onion, mixing. Reduce heat to low and cover. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Spoon mixture onto tortillas, sprinkling with onion and tomato before rolling. In separate pan, lightly fry burritos in olive oil on low-medium heat, 1-2 minutes per side. Serve with avacado salad and sour cream.
Tips:
- Use a variety of chili beans: For a more complex flavor, use a combination of chili beans, such as pinto, black, and kidney beans.
- Season the chili well: Be generous with the spices when seasoning the chili. Chili powder, cumin, oregano, and garlic powder are all essential. You can also add a touch of heat with cayenne pepper or chili flakes.
- Cook the chili until it's thick and flavorful: Simmer the chili for at least 30 minutes, or until it's thick and flavorful. The longer you simmer the chili, the better the flavor will be.
- Use fresh tortillas: Fresh tortillas make all the difference in burritos. If you can, get them from a local tortilleria. If you can't find fresh tortillas, you can use store-bought tortillas, but be sure to warm them up before using them.
- Load up the burritos with your favorite toppings: In addition to chili, you can also add rice, beans, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa to your burritos. Get creative and make them your own!
Conclusion:
Chili burritos are a delicious and easy meal that can be made with a variety of ingredients. Whether you're using leftover chili or making it from scratch, these burritos are sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give chili burritos a try!
