Crisp Bean Burritos

Buritto Size Tortilla's
refried beans
Cheese
Oil
Toothpicks
paper towels

Heat the refried beans and cheese in a pan. In a large frying pan warm some oil. Just enough to fill the bottom of the pan and about a 1/4 inch deep. I usually put the oil on between medium anad medium high, you will find what temp is good for your stove.
Put the beans in the tortilla seal it with the toothpick, and place in the hot oil, turn until it is crispy on all sides and be sure to wrap in a paper towell to get the excess oil off.

Dipping Sauce
Ranch dressing
Red Taco sauce

Mix the two together, so yummy with your crisp bean burrito!
