How to Make Beef Cheese Burritos

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 pound of ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and no longer pink. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Stir in 1 cup of your favorite salsa and 8 ounces of cubed Velveeta cheese. Cook, stirring frequently, until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  3. Warm 6-8 large flour tortillas according to package directions. You can heat them in a dry skillet, microwave, or oven.
  4. Spoon about 1/2 cup of the beef mixture into the center of each tortilla.
  5. Top with your favorite burrito toppings (suggestions below).
  6. Fold the bottom edge of the tortilla up over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll up tightly.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy!
