A delightful fusion of a loaded burrito and crispy grilled cheese, packed with cheesy goodness and seasoned beef, perfect for any meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 packet taco seasoning (or homemade blend: 1 tbsp chili powder, 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp onion powder, 1/2 tsp paprika, 1/2 tsp salt)
  • 1 cup cooked white rice
  • 1/2 cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt)
  • 1/2 cup nacho cheese sauce
  • 1/4 cup chipotle sauce (or your favorite hot sauce)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • Butter or oil for grilling

Instructions

  1. Heat a skillet over medium. Add ground beef and cook for 8–10 minutes until no pink remains.
  2. Drain excess grease from the pan. Return beef, add taco seasoning and 1/4 cup water, then simmer for 4–5 minutes.
  3. Warm tortillas on a dry skillet or microwave for 20–30 seconds wrapped in a damp paper towel.
  4. Lay one warm tortilla flat. Spread about 1/4 cup rice, top with seasoned beef, drizzle nacho cheese, chipotle sauce, and sour cream.
  5. Sprinkle cheddar and mozzarella on top. Fold the sides and roll tightly, sealing the seam.
  6. Heat a clean skillet, sprinkle shredded cheese into the pan, place burrito seam-side down. Cook for 3–4 minutes until golden and crispy.
  7. Flip and repeat for the other side. Remove, let rest for 1 minute, then cut.

Notes

Great for meal prep; store leftovers in an airtight container or freeze for future use. Serve with salsa or a simple slaw.
