If you’re looking for a quick and easy meal, this is it! These One Pan Crack Bean Burritos are so creamy and flavorful that you won’t be able to stop eating them!
This recipe isn’t exactly earth shattering in its complexity but it’s pretty dang good. The best part about it is how stinkin’ simple it is! See those 5 ingredients in the pan below? That’s all you need! You can also play with the flavors a little bit here and still get amazing results. Not a bean fan? Use cooked, shredded chicken instead! Want it a little spicier? Use the “regular” or “Spicy” varieties of Rotel. Want to ditch the whole burrito plan and ladle it over tortilla chips and cheese? You’ve got some killer nachos!
All you have to do is drain the beans and throw them into the skillet with the rest of of the ingredients– taco seasoning, Rotel, and cream cheese. Heat, stirring until the cream cheese is melted and it’s done! We eat ours wrapped up in tortillas topped with tomatoes, avocado, cilantro and sour cream.
Note: I use the “mild” variety of Rotel because regular is too spicy for my kid’s tastes so if you need things a little milder, you’ve been warned.
So easy, delicious and the perfect thing to make when you have limited time and big, empty bellies to fill!

I made these and drained the tomatoes. They came out great, not watery at all but I do believe that is because I drained the tomatoes. Added sauteed onions and red pepper, and a can of drained corn because I like to add as many veggies as possible. I only used 2 tablespoons of homemade taco seasoning. Topped it with sour cream, cheese, tomatoes and lettuce. My husband and I really enjoyed them and they were really easy to make. I will definitely make these again.
