Beef and Rice Burritos


Some years ago I blogged about these rice burritos I grew up eating. Well today I have remade them from scratch so they are gluten free and I can still enjoy them too.


Beef and Rice Burritos (gluten free)
Rice dinner mix adapted from Plain Chicken

1 pound ground beef
1 yellow onion, diced
2 Tbl chopped garlic
Salt and pepper to taste

2 Tbl butter
1 cup regular long grain rice
1/2 cup broken (gluten free) raw spaghetti pasta
14 oz can diced tomatoes (undrained)
3 Tbl diced canned carrots
2 1/2 cups (gf) beef broth
2 tsp beef better-than-bouillon paste
1 tsp onion powder
4 1/2 tsp (gf) Worcestershire
1 1/2 tsp (gf) soy sauce
1 Tbl chopped garlic
1/2 tsp black pepper

In a large skillet, brown ground beef with onion, garlic salt and pepper. Drain off fat. Set aside and keep warm. In the same skillet, melt 2 Tbsp butter. Add broken pasta and rice. Cook until lightly brown. Add remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and cover. Cook 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until water is absorbed. Add cooked beef mixture and fill flour tortillas as desired.

the beef and rice mixture, ready to go

enjoy,

  1. Sounds yummy, but if you put it in a flour tortilla, they are no longer gluten free. Try corn tortillas :)
