A Great Go To Meal, Member srhoward29

I made this for tonight's dinner and it was a big hit with the family. I put it together with a salad and had it on the table in 20 minutes. I went ahead and made up 8 burritos with the mixture that I had. Very flavorful. This is the kind of food I need on a busy night. And just as good as other fussier burrito recipes.
