1 lb lean ground beef
1 (1 1/4 ounce) envelope taco seasoning
1 (64 ounce) can pinto beans
salt
1/2 onion, chopped
6 flour tortillas
32 ounces green enchilada sauce (use red if you prefer)
2 -3 cups cheddar cheese, grated

1
Brown the beef and drain.
2
Add taco seasoning and 1/2 cup water and cook until all liquid is gone.
3
Meanwhile, drain about half of the liquid off of the pinto beans and then heat in a pan.
4
When beans start to simmer, lightly mash until you get the desired consistency (I like some whole beans left). Season to taste with salt, about 1 teaspoon.
5
Lightly heat one tortilla over burner until pliable.
6
Spread some beans down the center or tortilla and top with some seasoned meat. Sprinkle on some onions and any other options you'd like. (Save some for on top!).
7
Tuck in sides of tortilla and then roll up. Place seamside down on a microwave safe plate.
8
Spoon some enchilada sauce over burrito and top with lots of grated cheese.
9
Lightly cover with micro-safe paper and cook on HIGH for about 2 minutes, until the cheese is nice and melted.
10
Repeat for remaining burritos.
11
Serve with sour cream or scattered tomatoes or anything you'd like!
