Kid Favorite:Burrito Bake






Cheap with a capital "Ch" and loved by my kids: Burrito Bake.







  • One package (8-10) frozen burritos of your favorite flavor
  • Two cans refried beans
  • One can/jar taco sauce/enchilada sauce
  • One package (2 cups) shredded cheese of your choice

Spread the beans in a cake pan-type casserole dish. Place the burritos in a single row on the beans. Pour sauce over all burritos. Bake at the temp/time suggested on your frozen burrito package (350 for 30 minutes usually). Sprinkle cheese over all, put back in oven (can turn off the heat) just to melt the cheese, maybe 5 minutes. Feeds 4-6, plus or minus leftovers.
Variations: Use one can regular beans and one can refried beans. (We always use black refried if we can find them), or if you're bean lovers like my kids and I, use two refried plus one regular.
Add any hot sauce, jalapenos, sour cream, etc, that you like.
The kids really love this, and it's much more filling than just eating a plain frozen burrito. Groceries for this, with my Russ's card: $7.59.
