Ground Beef Wet Burritos

This copycat recipe from Beltline Bar in Grand Rapids, Michigan is a filling and hearty family meal! Similar to enchiladas, but with a kicked up sauce, these smothered burritos are freezer friendly and so simple to make! Great with ground turkey or chicken instead of beef.

Hello!! I hope you're having a wonderful weekend so far!! 

I spent the day cooking up some new recipes, cleaning and packing for the move. I've lived in the same place for 5 years and didn't realize how much stuff I actually accumulated in that time. 

I have so many boxes of stuff to donate to the thrift store. It feels nice to go through everything. 

We are less than 4 weeks from closing on the house. My daughter and I got to see the inside of the house on Tuesday. It was SO exciting! Most of the inside is completed.

Since it's a Habitat for Humanity home, we haven't seen much of the inside progress so far, thus making it extra exciting. I can't wait to have a brand new kitchen to cook in, and dining space to entertain.

Today's recipe comes from my sister Shannon's kitchen. 

We went to visit her a couple weekends ago, and she made these Wet Burritos! This isn't the first time she's made them for us. 

Shannon's been making them for years, since she lived in Grand Rapids, MI.

There's a restaurant/bar there, Beltline and they serve these wonderful wet burritos. This is the copycat of the ones you can try there, for a fraction of the price, at home.

They are super saucy and the sauce is such a unique blend of ingredients. Similar to an enchilada, but bigger and better tasting in my opinion. They taste fantastic topped with some guacamole, sour cream and pico de gallo. Serve with some rice for a complete meal!

What are the ingredients in this recipe??

• cumin
• flour tortillas
• ground beef
• onion
• refried beans
• beef gravy
