In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. Drain off any excess fat.

Place a portion of nacho cheese sauce in the center of each tortilla. Add a layer of seasoned rice, the prepared ground beef, crunchy red tortilla strips, and shredded three-cheese blend.
05 -
Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll tightly from the bottom up to secure the filling.

For added texture, place the burritos seam-side down in a hot skillet and cook 1–2 minutes per side until the exterior is golden and crisp.

Slice each burrito in half if desired and serve immediately with your choice of sour cream, salsa, jalapeños, shredded lettuce, or hot sauce.
