Easy Burros

These are so good and way easier!  I received this recipe from a friend here in Heber/Overgaard about 10 years ago... V. Hausmann.  Thanks again for this great little recipe.

I have, of course, changed things just a little, but the original is really, really good, especially if you don't want to go the Chimichanga route.  The biggest reason for the change is that the canned beef available now, it seems, is different than it use to be.  The directions say to drain the beef, reserving the gravy.  Well, the gravy just doesn't drain off!  There is very little liquid to pour off, so I warmed up the beef in a small skillet to melt the gravy, then poured it into a microwave safe bowl, added the chopped green chilies and the corn starch, stirred it all up and then microwaved it for a couple of minutes until it was thick.  I then put  it in the skillet with the meat, added the beans (I used pintos) and then heated all of it well. 

Then I put the filling on flour tortillas, rolled them up and placed them seam side down in a baking dish.  I poured on some green enchilada sauce, topped it with cheese and put it in a 400 degree oven for 15 minutes.  Dang!  They are so good! 

Put a little rabbit food on the side and a dollop of sour cream on top, YUUUMMM!  (OK, so I forgot the sour cream in the picture... use your imagination!) :)

Give 'em a try... I bet you'll like them, too!
