You know those cheapo-reapo frozen burritos that you can buy at the grocery store and then just nuke in the microwave for a quick snack? I used to love those things. I ate a lot of them in high school and college, even though they are terrible for you and half the time made me feel gross. But they're so easy!
Enter: Homemade Freezer Burritos, a brilliant idea from Budget Bytes!
I also defrosted some of my (Not) Refried Beans from my freezer.
Here's the picture from the last time I made them, as I didn't take a picture this time.
And started assembling my burritos on some flour tortillas!
Shredded Beef:
JalapeƱos:
Refried Beans:
Cheese (I used my favorite, pepper jack):
Rolled up:
And over:
And then flipped closed:
I also made a couple breakfast burritos, with leftover scrambled egg whites and bacon from earlier in the day:
I wrapped the first one in parchment paper and labeled. However, this turned out to be the end of my roll. Oops!
I then tried wrapping a couple in plastic wrap, but wasn't a big fan of that (harder to label). Most of them got wrapped in foil. Just gotta remember to remove the foil before microwaving, of course!
I ended up with nine burritos before I ran out of tortillas. (Not very good planning on my part!)
I'll let you know how they taste once it does!
How long do you cook these? And do you pop them in the microwave? ~Jillian
ReplyDeleteI microwave them for one minute on each side.
