Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling:
    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef with diced onion until the meat is browned and the onion is translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat. Add the minced garlic, chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  2. Combine the Ingredients:
    Add the black beans, corn, cooked rice, and shredded cheese to the skillet. Stir until everything is well combined and heated through. Remove from heat.
  3. Assemble the Burritos:
    Warm the flour tortillas slightly to make them more pliable. Place a generous scoop of the filling in the center of each tortilla. Fold in the sides and then roll from the bottom up, ensuring the filling is securely wrapped. Repeat with all tortillas.
  4. Prepare the Sauce:
    In a baking dish, pour half of the enchilada sauce on the bottom. Place the rolled burritos seam-side down in the dish. Pour the remaining sauce over the top of the burritos, ensuring they are generously covered.
  5. Add Cheese:
    Sprinkle the additional shredded cheese over the top of the burritos, covering them evenly.
  6. Bake the Burritos:
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the burritos for about 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

Serving Suggestions

Once baked, remove the wet burritos from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve hot with your favorite toppings, such as:

  • Sour cream
  • Fresh cilantro
