Thrive’s February monthly delivery specials definitely invoked a Mexican food vibe. I thought it would be delicious to use both the refried beans AND the beef in one recipe so my beef & bean burritos were born. Usually when you think of a burrito you envision putting all the ingredients in layers, but I mashed them all together to rehydrate and cook and it actually turned out amazing! You can use this mixture as a chip dip or make it into burritos or tacos. My husband thinks it is the best Thrive meal I’ve created so far!
