Recipe Tips
Meal Prep Friendly: Make a larger batch and store portions in the fridge or freezer for quick and easy meals throughout the week. It reheats well and can be a lifesaver on busy days.
Crisp up your ground beef: Place it seam-side down in a hot skillet over medium heat. Cook for a few minutes on each side until the tortilla is golden brown and crispy. This helps the burrito hold together better and adds a crunch to each bite.
