How to Make Beef And Potato Burritos

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 lb ground beef, 2 tbsp chili powder, 1 tbsp garlic powder, and 1 tbsp onion powder. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
  2. Cook the beef mixture over medium-high heat in a large skillet until thoroughly browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. At this point, you can cool and freeze the meat mixture for later use in burritos, tacos, or enchiladas.
  4. While the meat cooks, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Wash and roughly chop 2 lbs of potatoes. Then, spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake for approximately 1 hour, or until tender and slightly browned. You can also use 2 (20 ounce) packages of frozen hash browns, following package instructions.
  5. In a large bowl, combine the cooked beef mixture, baked or prepared hash browns, 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, 1 cup salsa, and 1-2 teaspoons Tabasco sauce (to taste). Mix gently.
  6. Warm 12-15 large flour tortillas in the microwave for 15-20 seconds, or until pliable. You can also warm tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat.
  7. For each burrito, place approximately 1 cup of the filling mixture onto the center of a tortilla. Roll tightly and wrap each burrito in aluminum foil if freezing.
  8. To reheat frozen burritos, remove foil and microwave for 3-4 minutes on high, or until heated through. For unfrozen burritos, microwave for 2-3 minutes or until heated through.
