Ingredients

1 pound lean ground beef
½ cup chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes with juice, divided
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 ½ teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon dried oregano
¾ teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cups refried beans
¼ teaspoon ground cumin
1 (18 ounce) jar beef gravy
1 (10 ounce) can enchilada sauce
4 large flour tortillas
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
1 cup sour cream, divided
¼ cup chopped onion, divided
¼ cup chopped tomatoes, divided
1 cup chopped lettuce, divided

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Place a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir ground beef, 1/2 cup chopped onion, and garlic in the hot skillet until beef is browned and crumbly, breaking it apart as it cooks, about 8 minutes; drain excess grease. Mix in half the can of diced tomatoes, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, paprika, oregano, 3/4 teaspoon of cumin, and black pepper. Bring meat mixture to a boil over medium-high heat and cook for 5 minutes, stirring often.
Heat refried beans and 1/4 teaspoon cumin in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Keep beans warm. Mix remaining half of diced tomatoes, beef gravy, and enchilada sauce in a separate saucepan; bring to a boil.
Place tortillas onto a microwave-safe plate and cover with a damp paper towel; microwave tortillas until they are soft and warm, about 30 seconds. Place a warmed tortilla onto a work surface and spoon 1/4 the beef mixture in a line down the center of the tortilla. Layer 1/4 the bean mixture on top of beef layer and spread 1/4 cup of Cheddar cheese over the bean layer. Fold right and left edges of the tortilla over the ends of the filling and roll up tortilla to make a burrito. Place burrito seam side down into a 9x13-inch baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas to make 4 burritos.
Pour gravy sauce over the burritos in the baking dish; top with remaining 1 cup Cheddar cheese.
Bake burritos in the preheated oven until the cheese has melted, 15 to 20 minutes. To serve, place each burrito on a serving plate and spoon sauce from baking dish over the burritos. Top each burrito with 1/4 cup sour cream, 1 tablespoon chopped onion and chopped tomato, and 1/4 cup of chopped lettuce.
