My dears, today I’m delighted to share a dish with you that’s as comforting as a quilt stitched by grandma – my very own Beef Burrito Casserole. This dish is a hearty mélange of classic flavors, perfect for bringing everyone together around the dinner table for a taste of home. While burritos have their roots in the south, they’ve found a special place in our Midwestern hearts.

And why roll up your sleeves to make it? For the laughter and stories that naturally emerge around such a meal, that’s why.
