Enchirritos

July 2, 2010 by mandyrecipebox

Who doesn’t love Enchirritos? Crazy-food-blogging-girl-say-what?!? Well it’s a cross between an enchilada and burrito. And so totally excellent. The second day leftovers are even better. I found them in a magazine and tried them out on my guinea pigs family. They liked them and so I was happy, because who likes to make something that only they like. Unless its a really great dessert, then I kinda like when no one else likes it. More for me *insert evil laughter*.

Author: Mandy Bird
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 9x13 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.
  4. Pour remaining sauce over top; sprinkle with remaining cheese.
  5. Roll up and place seam side down in the baking dish.
  6. Bake uncovered at 350 for 18-22 minutes or until bubbly and cheese is melted. Serve with optional toppings, if desired.

    Made this and the whole family loved it. I think it will be much easier to make next time using canned red enchilada sauce (Hatch is my favorite.) I had a hard time getting the sauce to thicken but other than that it was easy and delicious. Definitely going to make this again, thanks for the recipe!
