Ingredients

• 500 grams ground beef
• 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
• 400 grams refried beans
• 150 grams nacho cheese sauce
• 120 grams sour cream
• 150 grams shredded cheddar cheese
• 4 large flour tortillas
• 1 tablespoon cooking oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large skillet over medium heat, add the cooking oil. Once hot, add the ground beef and cook until browned, about 6-8 minutes.

Step 2

Drain excess fat from the beef, then add the taco seasoning and a splash of water. Stir to coat the beef well and let it simmer for an additional 2 minutes. Remove from heat.

Step 3

In a small saucepan, heat the refried beans over low heat until warm, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 4

Microwave the nacho cheese sauce in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals until warm and smooth.

Step 5

Warm the flour tortillas by heating them in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 20 seconds on each side, or wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 20 seconds.

Step 6

To assemble the burrito, lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread about 100 grams of refried beans onto the center of the tortilla.

Step 7

Spoon about 125 grams of the seasoned beef over the beans.

Step 8

Drizzle approximately 40 grams of nacho cheese over the beef.

Step 9

Add 30 grams of sour cream on top of the cheese, spreading gently.

Step 10

Sprinkle 35 grams of shredded cheddar cheese over the sour cream.

Step 11

Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly from the bottom to form the burrito. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make additional burritos.

Step 12

Serve the Beefy 5-Layer Burritos warm and enjoy!
