Prepare the Beef Filling:
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.

Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, and garlic to the skillet, and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Stir in the taco seasoning and water, mixing until well combined. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Assemble the Burritos:
Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds to make them pliable.
Place a tortilla on a flat surface and add a generous amount of the beef filling in the center.
Top with shredded cheese, lettuce, diced tomatoes, and red onion (if using).
Drizzle with sour cream and sprinkle with crushed tortilla chips for crunch.
Roll the Burritos:
Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly to enclose the filling.
Serve:
Serve the burritos with extra sour cream and cilantro for garnish.
You can also serve them with your favorite salsa or hot sauce on the side.
