chile colorado burritos and
guacamole
Found this wonderful meal here, this was so yummy!! My hubby and i went back for seconds, best part is its slow cooker one. We used Mexican Lipton rice and home made guacamole [will post this recipe here as well, they go great together!]
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lbs. stew meat
- 1 (19 oz) can red enchilada sauce
- 2 beef bullion cubes
- 1 can re fried beans
- 5-7 burrito size tortillas
- 1 cup shredded cheese more or less depend ending on personal preference
Instructions
- Put beef pieces into crock pot. Top with crushed bouillon cubes and enchilada sauce. Cook on low for 7-8 hours, or until meat is very tender. When beef is done (very tender and flakes off when stirred), taste and add more salt, if desired.
- Smear about 2 heaping spoons worth of beans on to the center of each tortilla. Add about 1/2 cup of beef and roll into a burrito.
- Place burritos into a greased 9x13 baking pan until it fills the pan. Pour some of extra crock pot sauce over the tops of the burritos to smother them. Place cheese on top.
- Broil until cheese becomes bubbly, approx. 2-4 minutes.
- This recipe makes about 5 burritos
we had this with the burritos, yummy as well! It sure did beat the stores versions, will be making this more often! Found this one here
Guacamole
Ingredients:
4 ripe avocados
1/2 cup red onion, diced finely
2 roma tomatoes, seeded and diced finely
1/4 - 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped finely
1 lime, juiced
1 teaspoon minced garlic
salt and pepper to taste
Cut avocados in half and remove pit. Scoop out flesh of avocado and coarsely chop it. Place in a large bowl and slightly mash with a fork. Add the diced onion, tomatoes, cilantro, and garlic and toss together with the avocados. Add the lime juice, salt, and pepper to taste.

Oooohhh....A slow cooker burrito? Way cool!
ReplyDeleteAnd I LOVE LOVE LOVE homemade guacamole. Our guacamole recipe is a lot like yours, and we add peppers to spice it up (jalepeno or cerrano). =0)
