Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |
  • Seafood 145° F |
  • Chicken 165° F |
  • Ground Beef 160° F |
  • Ground Turkey 165° F |
  • Ground Pork 160° F

Customize It Instructions

  • If using ground beef, break up until beef reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes. 

  • If using ground turkey, break up until turkey reaches minimum internal temperature, 6-8 minutes. 

  1. 1

    Start the Filling

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add mixed peppers to hot pan. Stir occasionally until slightly browned, 2-3 minutes.

  2. 2

    Finish the Filling

    Add ground pork, 1/4 tsp. salt, and chile and cumin rub to hot pan. Break up meat until no pink remains and pork reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 5-7 minutes.

    Stir in pesto (to taste) and 1/4 cup water until mixture is slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

    While filling cooks, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Heat Rice and Make Crema

    Carefully massage rice in bag to break up any clumps and remove from packaging.

    Combine rice and piri piri seasoning (to taste) in a microwave-safe bowl.

    Microwave uncovered until heated through, 3-4 minutes.

    While rice microwaves, in a mixing bowl, combine guacamole (to taste), sour cream, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.

    Carefully remove rice from microwave. Rest, 2 minutes.

    Fluff rice with a fork. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Heat Tortillas, Assemble Burritos, and Finish Dish

    Wrap tortillas in a damp paper towel. Microwave until heated through, 30-60 seconds.

    If tortillas come folded, keep folded.

    Place tortillas on a flat, clean work surface.

    Evenly divide filling (to taste), cheese, rice (to taste), and guacamole crema (to taste) between tortillas, placing in center. Fold sides of tortilla toward center, then roll bottom edge towards the top, enclosing sides tightly.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, slicing burrito, if desired. Bon appétit!
