Instructions
Heat the oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the beef with the onion, breaking it up, until no pink remains, 8 minutes.
Stir in the chili powder, cumin and salt for 1 minute, then the tomato sauce. Simmer until thick, 3 minutes. Move to a bowl and wipe out the skillet.
Warm the tortillas so they fold without cracking. Spread each with refried beans, then add rice, beef, cheese and salsa in a line across the lower third.
Fold the bottom over the filling, fold in the sides and roll up tightly.
Toast the burritos seam side down in the dry skillet over medium heat until golden and crisp, 2–3 minutes per side.
