TACO BELL CHILITO (CHILI CHEESE BURRITO) RECIPE!!!
For those of you who live in a place where Taco Bell does not sell their classic Chilito (and judging from Net, this includes alot of places), you can simply make them at home! This recipe is something I developed through trial and error. It is VERY close to the taste of the original. It also has that perfect "chilito" texture. Enjoy!! Important Note: The hot sauce called for in the recipe is Taco Bell's Hot or Mild Sauce (DO NOT USE the Fire sauce) You can make your own Taco Bell Hot Sauce: http://www.recipezaar.com/Taco-Bell-Hot-Sauce-45527

- Place hamburger back onto heat and add flour and mix until it is thick.
- Add the beans and heat through.

- Now here is the trick for that 'chilito' texture:.

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!
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.
Tips for Making the Best Chili Burritos:
- Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the burritos will be. Look for fresh, flavorful chili, tender beef, and soft tortillas.
- Season the beef well. Don't be afraid to add plenty of spices to the beef. This will give the burritos a lot of flavor.
- Use a variety of toppings. The toppings are what really make chili burritos special. Some popular options include sour cream, guacamole, salsa, and cheese.
- Serve the burritos immediately. Chili burritos are best when they are served hot and fresh. If you need to make them ahead of time, you can store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
Conclusion:
Chili burritos are a delicious and easy meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a quick lunch or dinner, and they can also be served as a party appetizer. With a little planning and preparation, you can make chili burritos that are sure to impress your friends and family.
