What’s better than a burrito? A burrito you can really crunch into! You’ll fill warm tortillas with smoky spiced ground beef, scallion-lime rice, juicy tomato, creamy queso blanco, and the secret ingredient: crushed tortilla chips. With these beefy, cheesy, earth-shatteringly crunchy burritos, you can really let the good times roll (pun intended).

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

Start Rice
1
  • In a small pot, combine rice, 1¼ cups water (2¼ cups for 4 servings), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes.

  • Keep covered off heat until ready to use in Step 5.

Prep
2
  • While rice cooks, wash and dry produce.

  • Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Quarter lime. Dice tomato into ½-inch pieces.

Cook Beef
3
  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add scallion whites, beef*, Southwest Spice Blend, and ½ tsp salt (1 tsp for 4 servings). Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes.

  • In the last 2 minutes of cooking, stir in ¼ cup water (½ cup for 4). Cook, stirring occasionally, until beef mixture has thickened slightly. TIP: If there’s excess grease in your pan, carefully pour it out.

Warm Queso & Crush Chips
4
  • While beef cooks, in a small microwave-safe bowl, combine queso blanco with 2 TBSP water (4 TBSP for 4 servings). Cover with plastic wrap and microwave until warmed through, 30-40 seconds. Stir and set aside.

  • Using your hands, break half the tortilla chips into bite-size pieces over a medium bowl (leave remaining chips whole for serving).

Warm Tortillas & Finish Rice
5
  • Wrap flour tortillas in damp paper towels; microwave until warm and pliable, 30 seconds.

  • Fluff rice with a fork; stir in scallion greens and juice from half the lime. Season with salt and pepper.

Assemble Burritos
6
  • Lay tortillas on a clean work surface. To the bottom third of each tortilla, add ½ cup scallion-lime rice in a line. Top with ½ cup beef, then with tomato, queso blanco, and crushed chips.

  • Fold up bottom sides of tortillas over filling, then fold over left and right sides toward filling. Roll up tortillas, starting with filled sides, to form burritos. TIP: For less mess, place each tortilla on a large piece of aluminum foil before rolling, then wrap up with foil. Simply unwrap as you eat!

Finish & Serve
7
  • Halve burritos on a diagonal.

  • Divide burritos, any remaining scallion-lime rice, and any remaining beef between plates. TIP: You can pile the beef on top of the rice and use the remaining chips to scoop it all up!

  • Serve with remaining tortilla chips and remaining lime wedges on the side.

This made so much tasty food! Not only were the burritos big and full, there were lots of filling ingredients left over for the next day. We had them on a salad! Chips were a nice treat too!

I was surprised by how tasty this burrito was. The warmed up queso really went a long way to bring it together, alongside the chips

Felt reminiscent of a crunch wrap from Taco Bell but obviously better for you and fresh ingredients. Would be even better with a little sour cream!

Delicious but needs more chips for that CRUNCH! We even put all the chips in (instead of the recommended amount) and still wanted more crunch texture. Love the nacho cheese.

The beef needed more taco flavor and the tortillas were very thin and started to tear. But the instructions were easy to follow and it was good overall.

Loved it, but we ended up also adding black beans of our own into the burrito. Would make a great addition to this dish!
