burrito recipe for hale bopp

13 years ago

don't know what "perfect" for a burrito means to you but i sure have convinced lots of people that this one is awfully good!

julie's wet burritos

filling

1 1/2 lb ground beef

1 can refried beans

chopped onions

1 package of dry taco seasoning mix

flour tortillas

brown beef and onions. add seasoning and at least half of a large can, all if you'd like, of refried beans

put a couple spoonfuls of meat mixture in tortillas, roll up and place in 9x13 pan that you have placed a little bit of sauce in the bottom.

sauce

1 can diced tomatoes

1 jar of beef gravy

1 small can of enchilada sauce (i use mild)

8 oz shredded cheese or more to taste

mix all together, except cheese, and put a little bit in the bottom of the pan to keep tortillas from sticking. place filled and rolled tortillas in pan and pour sauce mixture over all. cover with lots of shredded cheese, i use med cheddar or mexican blend.

bake at 350 for about 30 min.

serve with chopped tomato and lettuce over them........sour cream if desired.

makes about 10 medium sized burritos or use less filling in each and make more.

My husband was in michigan this week and that was one of the flights he thought about taking on thursday night. He flies a lot and it just hit close to home. Clarence is not far from where we live. We are a little more out in the country. Big sigh of relief. When the news came on at 10pm they announced at the end of the broadcast that a plane had crashed by the airport, but they didn't know anything yet. By the time the 11pm news came on, it was not until after the weather that their news crews made it to the neighborhood and they announced it was a commercial plane. WIVB broadcast without commercial break until I went to bed at 2am. When my husband called to say he was alright i was so grateful. (wipes tears and sniffles) Fran, Could i have the blanket flower, please? BTW, DS#3 watered my keyboard once, its still a little iffy. We set it in from of the blower on the woodstove for a week. Just FYI those of you sowing in the keys LOL! Thank all of you for the prayers. Families here are esp. close knit and things like this are difficult for anyone. Praying for your FIL, too Nichol.

I had barbecue Sloppy Joes for supper tonight.Just browned a pound of meat,added salt,pepper,1 tsp.garlic powder,1 tbsp. dried onion flakes and used 1 cup prepared barbecue sauce instead of the tomato sauce.MMMMMM ........good! You can triple the dry ingredients,except for the brown sugar and store it in a zip lock bag or air tight container to have on hand. 3 Tbsp. will season 1 lb. of meat for Sloppy Joes.

Patti, the tweaks were really good. My original Taco Salad that I have been making for about 30 years, calls for 1 lb. ground beef, browned and drained, 1 can chili beans and a tsp. of chili powder for the meat mixture. Instead, I browned the meat, sprinkled it with about 2 T. flour and cooked it a little bit than I added a homemade taco seasoning mixture and about 2/3 C. water. Cooking until mixture thickened and water reduced to nothing. I set up a salad bar with shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, chopped red onion, sliced olives, diced avocado and shredded cheese. I had made refried beans (they're delicious even DH who doesn't like them loved them) an Catalina dressing. My original recipe called for Italian dressing but almost all taco salad recipes call for Catalina dressing. I don't like the bottled stuff so I made my own this afternoon. Frankly I don't care to use any dressing. I layered the lettuce and veggies, than added the hot meat, topped with hot refried beans and than the shredded cheese. I made DH fix his own so I could see how it would work. I serve it with crushed taco chips on top. For tonight, I did not make the shells but will when my Wine and Dine Group comes. I host the group next month. Generally we go to the hostess house for appetizers and cocktails and then to a local restaurant. Occasionally we stay home, hostess supplies the cocktail hour and everyone shares in the cost of the meal. We haven't stayed in since January and I thought we were due. You get to visit more at home. So I'm all set. Have figured out the appetizers and dessert and now have the main course. A simple meal but fun.

i did the gravy/enchilada sauce mixture because all sauce was too tomatoey.....the gravy just makes it where you can have it "wet" without being too rich. this is my version of a restaurant favorite from when i lived in michigan. hope you both like it!

Those sound great--especially the sauce! Have you ever used your sauce on enchiladas? I think I'd just like it plain--with a spoon!

Jae, almost exactly the same way I make Wet Burritos! I don't put tomatoes in my sauce though as we put lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, etc. on top before serving. And where is the place in Michigan you usually had the Wet Burritos? Ours was the Beltline Bar in Grand Rapids and also the Sam's Joint restaurants. I live in Florida now and nary a soul I meeet knows what a "Wet" buritto is!

hellion! you got it! we lived there for about 10 years and after we moved away and when friends would come visit, they would bring doggie bags from beltline bar....lol. we would stand in line however long it took to get seated then waddle out of there. glad someone else had the same pleasure. sam's joint had great ribs also.

did you ever go to the corner bar in rockford for chili dogs? would love to have that recipe.

If I made these up in the morning would the bottoms of the burritos get soggy with a small amount of sauce on the bottom of the pan?

not sure. you could make everything up early then assemble them later. if this isn't an option, they will still taste good..lol. they freeze well and are soggier that way but tend to always be "soggy" a bit due to all the sauce. enjoy!

Jae, it sure is a small world, lol! Never been to the corner bar in Rockford, but I am sure someone I know has. I have not made wet burritos in a while so the ingredients are on my shopping list for this week. Thanks for the memories of The good ole Beltline Bar.
