Beef and Bean Burritos

1- 1 1/2 lbs ground beef - browned
1/4  cup onion - chopped
1 garlic clove - minced
1/2 Tbsp chili powder
1/2 Tbsp cumin
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1  8oz can tomato sauce
8 large flour tortillas
1  16oz can refried beans
1 jar spaghetti sauce
1 cup shredded cheese

Freezing: In a saucepan cook ground beef, onion and garlic. Add seasonings, Stir in tomato sauce and simmer for 10 min. Add refried beans; cook and stir until well blended. Cool completely.
Warm tortillas in microwave for 30 seconds, place 1/2-3/4 cup of meat mixture on each tortilla. Fold sides in and roll up tortilla. Flash Freeze the burritos and then wrap individually and freeze.
To Cook: You can just heat burritos in the microwave and eat separately with salsa and sour cream or put in a casserole dish with spaghetti sauce and cheese - bake 350 for 25 min covered, then uncovered for 5 min -or until bubbly.
*Do not freeze with the sauce on them because the tortillas will get mushy. Include spaghetti sauce and cheese on the side for this meal.
