Kpd's Awesome Retro Burritos, Tacos or Chimichangas image

This is my basic recipe for a Mexican ground beef mixture. This way everyone can make what they want: DH makes burritos, I make tacos or chimichangas, and DD makes what I call a fiesta bowl! I usually double the recipe so we can use the leftovers for a Nacho Night! If I'm low on time or spices, I'll just throw in a taco packet, no biggie! Please use your judgement on the seasonings: we like it spicy, so I actually use a lot more than written...if you prefer mild, go a little light initially and increase as necessary.

I'm a vegetarian, but I still enjoyed these burritos. I simply used black beans instead of ground beef.

I'm not a big fan of ground beef, but I really enjoyed these burritos. The combination of flavors was perfect, and the burritos were so filling. I'll definitely be making these again, but I'll use ground turkey instead of beef.

These burritos were a great way to use up some leftover ground beef. They were also a lot healthier than traditional burritos, since they were made with whole wheat tortillas and plenty of fresh vegetables.
