I love copycatting Taco Bell recipes and giving them wild game twists and this Venison Grilled Cheese Burrito is no different.

Do you ever watch TV and wonder who these marketers are targeting with their ads?? Watching an insurance company with a crime fighting ostrich or all the strange Facebook groups don’t really do it for me. The only ads that always catch my attention are food commercials. The Taco Bell ones are stupid too, but they totally make me want to make a late-night run for some greasy indulgent calories lol. Their most recent commercials are for their Grilled Cheese Burritos. The combination of grilled cheese and a burrito are just some of the genius inventions they make over there at Taco Bell. I decided to make my own using ground venison, of course, and it turned it delicious!

It’s a pretty easy process that basically just requires making the burrito, browning it on both sides, topping it with cheese, and then broiling it in the oven to make the cheese crispy! Simple and tasty! Again if you’re enjoying my recipes leave me a review and a comment and ENJOY.

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Cook venison according to instructions on back of Taco Bell seasoning packet. Set Aside.
  • Cook rice according to package instructions.
  • Heat oven to Hi Broil.
  • Assemble burritos by layering desired amount of meat, rice, nacho cheese, tortilla strips, creamy chipotle sauce, and sour cream on a burrito sized tortilla. Fold like a burrito (fold two sides about 2 inches over and roll tucking in any pieces that stick out).
  • Heat a shallow pan over high heat.
  • Brown the seam side of the burrito first and then the other side (~2-3 minutes per side depending on how hot your pan is).
  • Place burritos on a cookie sheet.
    For spicy: line tops of burritos with ~4 pickled jalapeños.
    For both spicy and non-spicy: top with shredded cheese.**
  • Broil until cheese becomes melted and slightly browned. Enjoy!

Notes

*The actual burrito uses nacho cheese, but I prefer to use queso.
** For quick clean up: line our pan with foil.

My Aunt Vicki’s Bean Burrito Casserole will become a regular dish in your household. It is honestly that good. I think we have it at least once every other week. This recipe does not get old and is always loved.

My Aunt gave this recipe to my mom when I was little. It is typically made with beef, but I decided to try it with some axis we had ground up a couple weeks back. OH MY HEAVENS! It was delicious! I like to top mine with a dollop of sour cream and a spoonful of salsa. MMMMmmmmm yum!

Since my husband and dad are off living their best lives in South Dakota. My taste testers this week were my coworkers. With it being budget season at the office, our days are full of long meetings. I decided that instead of everyone having to bring their lunch, I would bring this in for them and get their honest opinions. They know they I have a tough skin and can take the hard truth 😉. My coworkers were so impressed. Several of them even got seconds. I didn’t have any to bring home. AND GUYS… it is SOOOOO easy. There is nothing special done that takes forever. It is just good and easy. I had this so many nights after practice because my mom could make it earlier in the day, refrigerate it, and then pop it in the oven for 15 minutes when I finally got home. And. It. Was. Perfect. Honestly… If you are someone with a busy schedule, looking for an easy meal, please give this a try. You won’t be disappointed. The best part, you can fix it up however you like. Extra beans? No problem. Can of corn? No problem. Don’t have venison? Use beef or elk or moose. Whatever you have in the fridge will be scrumptious.

I know your family will love this one. Enjoy!

My dad happens to work with some avid hunters who have traveled to Alaska to hunt. One of his coworkers got a moose last year and they found out I love cooking with wild game. Because of this they decided to share some with me and my family! Having my hands on moose sausage, my brain immediately went to breakfast burritos. YUM. This burrito has all the fixings and could easily be turned into tacos for a lighter option. I don’t have a specific recipe for the moose sausage, but any type of breakfast sausage or sausage in general would be absolutely bomb in this burrito. I hope you enjoy it as much as my family did!!
