When you’re feeling a little thrifty with your time and your money, this simple dish packs a lot of flavor with common ingredients and a few easy steps.
Pan Burritos
- 1 jar (16 oz.) enchilada sauce
- 1 lb. ground beef
- 3 large flour tortillas (or more smaller ones)
- 2 c. shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 can refried beans
Brown the hamburger. Stir in 1/3 of enchilada sauce. Spread another 1/3 sauce on the bottom of a 9x9ish pan.
Place a tortilla over sauce. Spread tortilla with 1/2 of the refried beans. Spoon 1/2 of the meat mixture over the tortilla; sprinkle 3/4 c. cheese.
Repeat layers: tortilla, beans, meat, cheese (3/4 c.).
Layer final tortilla; top with the rest of the sauce and cheese. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 35-40 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting. Serve with shredded lettuce and sour cream. Serves 6.

Sounds delicious!
My mother-in-law gave me the exact same recipe when I was first married. We never had them growing up, we missed out! Haven’t made them in a while, going to have to again soon
Sounds good, I will add it to our menu list. Thanks!
Yum! Reading stuff like this when I haven’t had supper yet is like going grocery shopping when you’re hungry. Off to go make some popcorn, since I figure that on top of chili might be a bit too much Mexican food for one day. :>)
This kind of sounds like a Mexican version of lasagne. Now we know it must be great.
This sounds very good! Serve it with a Mexican salad and you have a super meal. I would even freeze this for an evening I don’t feel like cooking. Thanks
