Easy Burrito Casserole

This is what I call a very "semi-home made" meal You can elect to make your own beef and bean burritos by using taco seasoning, browning up some ground beef, warming some refried beans and using flour tortillas...or...you can just buy some El Monterrey Beef and Bean Burritos and save a bunch of time. The other key is this recipe definitely needs "Wolf Brand No Bean" Chili versus another brand. IF you can't find Wolf Brand then go ahead and use your favorite canned chili (unless of course you want to make your own favorite chili from scratch) 🙂
