Freezer Meal Friday: Beef and Cheese Burritos


Since joining a freezer meal swap with friends, I've tried quite a few freezer recipes. Some were flops while others were a success. Some took hours and required ingredients that had never been in my cabinets (and probably never would be again). The goal of Freezer Meal Friday is to offer simple freezer recipes with simple, everyday ingredients! And today's recipe is my favorite......Beef and Cheese Burritos! I never get sick of this one!

Ingredients:
(8) 8-10 inch flour tortillas
1.5 cups shredded cooked beef, chicken or pork
1 cup bottled salsa
(1) can of refried beans
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese or Monterey Jack cheese
Optional: shredded lettuce, sour cream, salsa, cheese
Optional Side Dish: Rice

Prep/Freezing Directions:
*In a medium bowl stir together shredded beef and 1 cup salsa.
*Soread 2 tablespoons refried beans on each tortilla. Top beans with 1/4 cup beef mixture near one edge. Top beef mixture with 1/4 cup cheese. Fold in the sides of tortilla and roll up, starting from the edge with the filling. Place filled tortillas, seam sides down, in a greased 3 quart rectangular baking dish.

Cooking Directions:
*Thaw in fridge overnight.
*Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven about 20 minutes or until heated through.
