Directions

SMOTHERED BURRITOS:

Heat flour tortilla on grill about 10 seconds; turn and heat another 10 seconds until hot.

Add about ¾ cup refied beans; roll.

Place on serving plate.

Top with Chili Verde and generous amounts of cheeses, using as desired.

Buzz in microwave about 3 minutes, until cheese is melted.

FLOUR TORTILLAS:

Mix flour, baking soda, salt and shortening with hands until thoroughly combined.

Add enough warm water to make a manageable dough (easy to roll).

Pinch off pieces of dough about the size of a biscuit.

Roll into a circle about ⅛ inch thick.

Put on heated 300-degree grill for about 6 seconds; turn and cook another 8 seconds.

Repeat with remaining dough.

Makes 24 flour tortillas.

Tortillas may be frozen.

Stack between sheets of waxed paper.

CHILI VERDE:

Roast Anaheim peppers in 350-degree oven about 15 minutes; turn and roast an additional 15 minutes.

Remove from oven; cool.

(The peppers may be frozen at this point.)

To peel roasted Anaheims, steam a few minutes; cool as needed, then peel and dice.

Add 2 cups water; set aside.

In a large skillet, cook pork (or beef) in melted shortening until browned and completely cooked.

Add flour, garlic salt and pepper, blending well.

Add Anaheim pepper mixture; bring to a boil.

Reduce temperature and simmer 10 minutes.
