These wet burritos are very easy, yet very good. I got this recipe from a friend, and everyone I serve them to asks for the recipe. Serve with guacamole, sour cream, and salsa.
If you’ve never heard of a “wet burrito” (aka Burrito Mojado) it’s not hard to guess where it gets its name! Regular burritos are stuffed in a flour tortilla and wrapped in aluminum foil so you can eat them with your hands. Wet burritos are made “wet” when smothered in enchilada sauce, served on a plate, and eaten with a fork.
If you want to make my favorite version of a wet burrito, try it served with both red and green enchilada sauce spooned separately over each half of the burrito. Top it with sour cream and guacamole and not only is it delicious, but it’s festive as it looks like the Mexican flag!
Ingredients:

- 1 pound ground beef or shredded cooked chicken

- 2 cloves garlic, minced
