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.

Author: Mandy Bird
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
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Bake uncovered at 350 for 18-22 minutes or until bubbly and cheese is melted. Serve with optional toppings, if desired.

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!

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
mandyrecipebox says
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.
Sue Clark says
Thanks !!!!! Will be waiting for it.
