Instructions

  1. 1

    Brown the beef in a skillet over medium-high heat, about 6 minutes, drain, then stir in half the chili powder, the cumin, garlic powder, and the drained pinto beans.

  2. 2

    For the sauce, heat oil in a saucepan, whisk in the flour and remaining chili powder for 1 minute, then whisk in tomato sauce and beef stock and simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Preheat the oven to 400°F. Fill the tortillas with the beef mixture and a third of the cheddar, roll tightly, and place seam side down in a 9x13 baking dish.

  4. 4

    Pour the red sauce over the burritos and cover with the remaining cheddar.

  5. 5

    Bake until the sauce bubbles and the cheese melts, about 15 minutes.

  6. 6

    Rest 5 minutes before serving with sour cream if you like.
