Well Plated posted the beef burrito recipe on March 23, 2026, crediting Erin Clarke as the author of the piece. (wellplated.com)) The recipe’s prep-to-table time is listed as 25 minutes, and the post explicitly flags the burritos as freezer-friendly for make-ahead meal prep. (wellplated.com)) Clarke recommends 90%–93% lean ground beef and calls for a spice blend of chili powder, cumin, oregano, garlic powder and smoked paprika to build the filling’s Tex‑Mex profile. (wellplated.com)) The ingredient list pairs the beef with black beans and salsa, suggests 10‑inch flour tortillas, and offers cheese options such as Monterey Jack, cheddar or a Mexican blend. (wellplated.com)) Stepwise technique notes include browning the beef undisturbed for 3–4 minutes to develop a crust, then stirring in the beans and salsa and cooking for about 1 minute before assembling the burritos. (wellplated.com)) Erin Clarke, who runs Well Plated and has published cookbooks, frames the recipe as fast, family‑friendly, and adaptable with add‑ins like brown rice, guacamole or a shortcut taco seasoning.
