Taco Bell Beefy Melt Burrito

The Taco Bell Beefy Melt Burrito is a fast-food favorite for a reason — it’s warm, cheesy, comforting, and packed with bold seasoned beef wrapped in a perfectly toasty tortilla. This homemade version captures everything you love: the melty cheddar, cool sour cream, crisp veggies, and that optional crunchy bite that makes each burrito irresistibly satisfying. It’s quick to make, easy to assemble, and delivers that classic Tex-Mex flavor right from your own kitchen.

This recipe starts with seasoned ground beef simmered until thick and flavorful. Once wrapped with cheddar, onions, tomatoes, lettuce, and sour cream, the burrito becomes a perfect balance of heat, freshness, and creaminess. Toasting the assembled burrito adds that signature golden exterior — slightly crisp on the outside, melty and warm on the inside.
