Brown Bag Burritos

The candy has been put away (thank goodness!). The kids are acting crazy (I didn't put the candy away soon enough). But all-in-all I think our Easter was great. No one got hurt or stuck anything up their nose and we had a great time eating Easter dinner with my Grandma. Yes, I did remember my camera... so you guys are in for a treat! Keep tuned-in for some really great family recipes! I'm sure some of my family members thought I was crazy for snapping pictures of the food. Oh well, I'm sure they thought I was crazy already :) Grandma baked a honey-glazed ham, so I didn't want pork for supper. Brad picked these burritos off the menu. I feel really bad because I found this recipe on a blog and didn't write down the name on the recipe card. I should be giving someone credit for these awesome burritos. They really are yummy. The spices mixed with the canned enchilada sauce give the meat and beans a great flavor. Brad says they taste like the beef and bean burritos at Taco Bell. They're about 75 cents per serving and very easy. You can't beat that!
