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.

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!

1 MINUTE CHILI CHEESE BURRITOS
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! EXCELLENT LATE NIGHT SNACK! Also, the beauty of this recipe is that there isn't really a recipe, make it how hot you want, however many you want, etc.!

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!
