Fake Taco Bell Beef Enchirito
Prep: 5 minutes Cook: 10-15 minutes
I loved the beef enchirito from Taco Bell and have been thinking about it since they stopped selling it. They also are selling their sauces in grocery stores now so I’m trying to get the tastes I loved back. This is missing the beans in the center, and the sauce isn’t exactly the sauce they used, I don’t think but was a good and cheap rendition. You can add refried beans to get a better copy cat. This makes 1 serving
Ingredients
1/4 pound ground beef (or plant substitute)
1 burrito sized soft tortilla
1/4 cup shredded cheddar
1/4 chopped onion (more or less based on taste)
2 tbls sauce or 1 packet of taco seasoning of preference. I used Ortega
1/4 cup Taco Bell Hot Sauce (or sauce heat of choice)
Prep
In a pan on medium heat, cook the ground beef
Add the taco seasoning and mix well
Reduce the heat and add some of the onion
Heat fully
Add the meat to the tortilla and wrap in the burrito
Heat a second pan to a low medium heat and add the burrito
Lightly Brown the seam side first and flip to brown the back more fully
Reduce the heat to low
Flip again, and pour the Taco Bell Sauce on top and allow to pool to sides
Add the cheese and onions on top
Cover with a lid and heat until cheese melts
Remove and enjoy
Afterthoughts
This was delicious. While the beans were missing this was the tastes I loved and a blast from my past. I enjoyed it and it takes barely any time to prepare. This was an easy lunch and I can make more anytime quickly and customize however I want. It might not be perfect, but it’s delicious.
