If you love the rich flavors of a bacon cheeseburger but crave the convenience of a burrito, this Bacon Cheeseburger Burrito is the perfect meal for you! Packed with crispy bacon, seasoned ground beef, melted cheddar cheese, and creamy cheese sauce, this indulgent dish is a must-try.

• 1 lb ground beef
• 8 slices cooked bacon
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup cheese sauce
• 1/4 cup sour cream
• 4 large flour tortillas
• 1/4 cup diced onions (optional)
• 1/4 cup diced pickles (optional)
• Salt and pepper to taste

 

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Season with salt and pepper to enhance the flavor. Drain excess grease and set aside.

Step 2: Prepare the Fillings

• Cook the bacon until crispy, then chop it into bite-sized pieces.
• Shred the cheddar cheese if not already pre-shredded.

Step 3: Assemble the Burritos

1. Lay a large flour tortilla flat on a clean surface.
2. Evenly distribute a portion of the cooked ground beef in the center of the tortilla.
3. Add crispy bacon pieces, shredded cheddar cheese, and a drizzle of cheese sauce.
4. Optionally, sprinkle diced onions and pickles for extra flavor.
5. Top with a spoonful of sour cream.

Step 4: Roll and Crisp the Burrito

• Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up tightly to form a burrito.
• Heat a clean skillet over medium heat and lightly toast the burrito on all sides until golden and crispy.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy!

Slice the burrito in half and serve warm. Pair it with fries, coleslaw, or a side salad for a complete meal.

 

Make It Spicy – Add jalapeños, hot sauce, or spicy mayo for an extra kick.

Swap the Cheese – Try using Monterey Jack, Pepper Jack, or smoked gouda for a different flavor.

Lettuce Wrap Option – For a low-carb alternative, wrap the fillings in large lettuce leaves instead of a tortilla.

Grill It – Instead of pan-searing, use a panini press or grill to get a nice charred effect.

Add a Sauce – Enhance the flavors with barbecue sauce, ranch dressing, or a garlic aioli drizzle.

 

• Wrap leftover burritos tightly in foil or plastic wrap and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

• For longer storage, wrap the burritos in aluminum foil, then place them in a freezer-safe bag. They can last up to 2 months.

• Microwave: Wrap in a damp paper towel and microwave for 1-2 minutes until heated through.
• Oven: Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 15 minutes until warm and crispy.
• Skillet: Heat in a dry pan over medium heat until the tortilla is crispy and the filling is hot.

 

Yes! Prepare and roll the burritos, then refrigerate them until ready to heat. This makes for a quick and easy meal prep option.

You can substitute ground turkey, ground chicken, or even plant-based meat alternatives for a lighter version.

Absolutely! Sautéed mushrooms, bell peppers, or shredded lettuce would make great additions.

Use whole wheat tortillas, reduce the cheese sauce, or opt for lean ground beef or turkey.

Try serving it with French fries, onion rings, coleslaw, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
