Happy Tasty Tuesday! Today’s working mom-friendly burrito enchilada casserole recipe comes from Tela. She writes…

I’m not sure what this dish technically is, it’s sort of a mix between enchiladas and burritos, but leaning more toward the burrito side. Whatever it’s called, it’s easy and pretty delicious (and cheap!). I whipped it up when I was a poor grad student, so this isn’t a precise-measurement type of recipe. I sort of just wing it.

Burrito Enchilada Casserole
What You’ll Need:

  • 1 can refried beans
  • Sour cream
  • 1 16-ounce package Cheddar, Cheddar Jack, Monterey Jack (Whatever your favorite type of “Mexican” cheese is) cheese, halfed
  • Scallions—diced
  • 1 can enchilada sauce
  • 1 package tortillas

What to Do:

  • Preheat oven to 350F.
  • Mix refried beans, scallions, 1/2 bag of cheese, some sour cream (a couple spoonfuls is usually what I use) and half the can of Enchilada Sauce together in a bowl.
  • Spray a 9×13 inch baking dish with Pam or grease lightly.
  • Dollop spoonfuls of your bean mixture into tortillas and roll into burrito shape. Fill them with as much bean mixture to fit you and your family’s tastes.
  • Line the baking dish with burritos/enchiladas.
  • When the dish is filled, pour the remaining Enchilada Sauce over the burritos and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
  • Bake until the bean filling becomes bubbly and cheese is melting/browning. Approximately 20 minutes or so.
  • Enjoy!

    I’m a straggler from the party, still checking out people who stopped by my place.

    I’m a work at home mom who doesn’t think any mom should feel guilty about how, when and where they work.
