Smothered Burritos

I don't really have a recipe for this:

I made a Refried Bean Sauce:
Refired Beans
Black Beans
Pinto Beans
Can Chilis

Assembled:

Tortilla
Refried Bean Sauce
Shredded Pork (but you could use any meat, Taco meat, Chicken Beef)
Cheese
You could also put in Peppers & Onions (I didn't in this one because I didn't know if anyone would like it)

I then individually wrapped.

Thaw out and put in a pan. Open Can of Refried Beans and mix with milk until a thick soupy consistency. Pour over burritos and top with cheese or garnish with green onions or whatever you like with your burritos, bake until bubbly.

When done top with sour cream, salsa, onions, etc.

I'm sorry this isn't more of a for sure recipe. Also, I put 3 burritos in each bag, the burritos can be a bit big so some could be cut in half for little kids.

Cafe Rio Pork

Cafe Rio Pork
5-6 lbs. pork
1 16 oz. bottle of salsa
1 can of Coke
2 cups brown sugar
1\2 bottle of La Victoria Red Sauce
Cilantro, optional. (I forgot to add it to yours!)

Directions:
Place pork in crock pot. Cool on low for about 6 hours. (Should be tender enough to shred with a fork) Pour off liquid. Shred pork. Mix other ingredients together and stir into the shredded pork. Cook an additional 1-3 hours on low. (I cooked ours for a total of 10 hours)

You can serve this on a tortilla as a burrito or taco. Or you could put this together like a salad at Cafe Rio. You could also just serve with rice.
Here are some other "CAFE RIO INSPIRED" recipes I came across that you could try.

LIME-CILANTRO RICE
2 c. long grain rice
1 bunch cilantro
juice of 2 limes
4 cloves of garlic

Directions:
Chop garlic and cilantro. Heat 2 T. oil in skillet. Add rice and all chopped ingredients. Saute 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently. Put 4 cups of water and lime juice in a rice cooker. Add rice mixture to rice cooker and cook according to cookers directions.

CREAMY TOMATILLA RANCH
1 packet Hidden Valley Ranch Buttermilk dressing
1 c. buttermilk
1 c. mayonnaise
3 tomatillas, chopped. (they apparently look like green tomatoes with husks...?)
2 cloves of garlic, chopped
1 c. fresh cilantro
1\2 tsp. cayenne pepper, optional

Blend all ingredients together in a blender. Refrigerate. Will last for 2 weeks in refrigerator.
