Faux Enchiladas

• 2 pounds Ground Round
• 1 whole Large Onion, Diced
• 3 whole Large Garlic Cloves, Minced
• 1 can (16 0z. Size) Refried Beans
• 1 can (10 0z. Size) Enchilada Sauce
• 1 can (6 0z. Size) Tomato Sauce With Basil And Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1/2 teaspoons Pepper
• 2 Tablespoons Beef Base - I Use Better Than Beef
• 1 cup Water
• 3/4 cups Orzo

1. Brown the ground round with the onions over medium heat.
2. When the onions start to soften, add the garlic (never add the garlic at the startyou want it fragrant, not burned) and cook for two to three minutes.
3. Drain the grease if necessary.
4. Add refried beans, enchilada sauce, tomato sauce, salt, pepper and beef base.
5. Stir until mixed.
6. Add the water and bring everything to a simmer, then add the orzo.
7. Cover and simmer, stirring often, for 15-20 minutes, until orzo is cooked.
8. This will be thick, so adding a couple of tablespoons of additional water might be called for.
9. Serve in bowls and if you like, top with cheese, sour cream and/or salsa.
10. Note: if you dont have the beef base, you can use two cubes of bouillon, but cut back on the salt.
11. You can also use one 14 ounce can of beef broth and omit the water.
