# Instructions:
01 -
In a large sauté pan over medium heat, cook the ground beef, breaking it into small pieces, until fully browned and no longer pink.
02 -
Stir in the taco seasoning and water or beef broth. Cook for 1 minute, then fold in the refried beans. Add extra water if mixture appears too thick.
03 -
Warm cooked Mexican rice as needed. Wrap flour tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave for 30 seconds to make them pliable.
04 -
Lay one warmed tortilla on a flat surface. Add several tablespoons of beef and bean mixture, then top with a portion of rice, crushed corn chips, a spoonful of warm cheese dip, shredded cheese, and sour cream.
05 -
Fold tortilla sides toward the center and roll tightly from one end to enclose the filling. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
06 -
Set the assembled burritos seam-side down in a dry skillet over medium heat. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes per side until golden brown and crisp.
07 -
Transfer burritos to plates and serve immediately, accompanied by salsa if desired.
# Notes:
01 -
For best flavor and texture, assemble burritos just before serving to preserve the crispness of the corn chips.
