This homemade Beef Burrito recipe is filled with saucy beef, beans, melty cheese, and all your favorite toppings. Mexican burritos are a favorite in our house (the kids love them!) and are great for meal prep.
We love Mexican-inspired recipes from Ceviche to Chicken Fajitas, and don’t forget the Flan for dessert. If you are a fan of Mexican food, add this easy Beef Burrito recipe to your must-try list!
In our house, we are big fans of Mexican food, but I especially love it when it’s made at home. Being able to control the ingredients and adjust the spice level makes all the difference—and homemade burritos often feel lighter, fresher, and more authentic than what you’d get at a restaurant.
There’s hardly any prep involved, and the results are absolutely worth it. You can make the beef ahead and assemble the burritos when you’re ready to eat, make a burrito platter for a Cinco de Mayo party, or even wrap and freeze them for future meals.
