Beef Burrito Skillet Recipe Tips

  • Ground turkey can be substituted for ground beef.
  • Instead of using black beans, you can use pinto beans or you can stir in a half can of refried beans.
  • Corn tortillas can be used instead of flour.
  • A small can of corn makes another great addition to this one pot dinner. Drain it and it it to the skillet when you stir in the beans.
  • I like to use a ground beef chopper to help crumble the ground beef.
