Enchirritos {Recipe Re-do}

by

Here’s another recipe re-do where I’ve posted a recipe before, but have since re-photographed the food and am re-posting it here for you.
These enchirritos are a favorite of mine. They are part enchilada, part burrito…hence the name.
The flavors are even better the next day as leftovers.

Serves: 8
Ingredients
  • ¼ c. butter
  • ¼ c. flour
  • 4 c. water
  • 3 Tbsp. chili powder
  • 1 tsp. garlic salt
  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 1 lb. ground sausage (I used a bacon flavored kind once and it was fabulous)
  • ¼ c. chopped onion
  • 1 c. refried beans
  • 8 flour tortillas (8 inch), warmed
  • 3 c. shredded cheese (monteray jack or cheddar works great)
  • Optional toppings: shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, sliced olives, sour cream
Directions
  1. In a large saucepan, melt butter. Stir in flour until smooth. Gradually add water. Bring to a boil; cook and stir one minute or until thickened. Stir in chili powder and garlic salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered for 10 minutes.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the beef, sausage, and onion until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in beans; heat through.
  3. Spread ¼ c. sauce in a greased 9×13 baking dish. Spread 1 Tbsp. sauce in the center of a tortilla and spread around. Place ⅔ c. (use measuring cup for this and it comes out perfect) meat mixture down the center of each tortilla. Top with ¼ c. shredded cheese. Roll up and place seam side down in the baking dish. Pour remaining sauce over top; sprinkle with remaining cheese.
  4. Bake uncovered at 350 for 18-22 minutes or until bubbly and cheese is melted. Serve with optional toppings, if desired.

  1. Looks & sounds fabulous! Can't wait to try these. I voted for you too…and also made your peanut butter bread this week. Will try to let you know when I am sharing that yummy recipe. *I*

  13. Made these tonight for dinner….loved everything but the sausage, next time hubby would like either all beef or maybe even shredded chicken. The sauce is amazing, I used Mexican Chili instead of of regular chili power, tuned out fantastic!! Thanks for a great new recipe to add to our rotation!

  14. What State do you live in? & where did you find BACON FLAVORED SAUSAGE WOULD Like to hear from you .Maybe I can order some I live in N.C

    • I live in Idaho and I believe it was the Farmland brand. I can’t remember the flavor! It may have been a hickory smoked sausage. If I find it again, I will post it on this recipe.

  16. Made these tonight. So good, 5 people voted a++. 14 yr old son said these were his new birthday dinner choice. Thanks for sharing!
