- Guacamole: pick up your favorite brand of guacamole or make homemade guacamole

How To Make Steak Burritos:
- Season steak with salt and pepper.
- Heat olive oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet, then add steak, and cook until it reaches desired doneness. (I like mine slightly pink in the center, which usually takes about 3-5 minutes depending on how thick I slice my steak).
- Assemble by evenly distributing steak, rice, guacamole, pico, and cheese onto each flour tortilla. Fold up opposite sides, then the bottom, then and roll up entirely to enclose the filling.
- Heat a large non stick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Coat the top and bottom of the burritos with the nonstick cooking spray. Place burritos in the skillet, seam side down. Cook for about 1 minute or until lightly browned and crisp. Turn the burritos over and cook another minute until golden brown.

Expert Tips:
- For extra melty cheese, use queso fresco or Old El Paso queso sauce for even more flavor.
- If you use homemade guacamole, keep the pit in the guacamole to help keep the it from turning brown.
- Pour a little mild red enchilada sauce into the burrito recipe.
