Beef and Bean Burritos
a la the Pioneer Woman

2 pounds ground beef
1/2 medium onion
1 7 oz can mexican sauce or enchilada sauce (El Pato tomato sauce is best)
salt and pepper to taste
cumin, oregano, chili powder and garlic to taste.
1 28oz can refried beans
3/4 c grated cheddar cheese
12 burrito sized flour tortillas
extra cheese and sauce, for sprinkling
cilantro, for sprinkling
optional fillings- mexican rice, guacamole, sour cream, green chilies, pico de gallo

Brown ground beef with onion and season to taste. Pour in sauce and simmer over low heat. Add water if mixture gets too dry. Heat refried beans in a saucepan. Add cheese and stir in till melted. Keep warm. Heat tortillas in microwave for one minute.
Spread a small amount of beans on each tortilla. Add meat. Fold over ends, then roll up. Place two burritos on a microwave-safe plate. Drizzle red sauce over the top and sprinkle with more grated cheddar. Microwave for one minute, or until cheese is melted and burritos are very hot. Or, place all on a baking sheet at once in the oven until cheese melts. Serve immediately.

OPTIONAL: Fill burritos with any optional ingredients you like. (I love them full, but my boys like them very plain.)
