Meal Prep Burritos for the Freezer
Directions
- 1Prepare all ingredients: dice two big yellow onions (250g in total), sieve canned tomatoes (300g).
- 2In a pan, fry 900g of ground beef with 5g of olive oil for 4-5 minutes until browned. Season with salt, 20g of black pepper, and 4g of garlic powder.
- 3Add the 250g of chopped onions to the pan and cook for another 5-6 minutes until translucent. Then add the tomato sauce and mix. Cook for another minute.
- 4Check the seasoning and add more salt and pepper to taste.
- 5Add 4 laughing cow cheese wedges, stir until fully incorporated, then add 120g of shredded mozzarella.
- 6Transfer the meat mixture to a plate and chill for 20 minutes. This allows for easier handling and helps prevent soggy tortillas.
- 7Lay out the tortillas and aluminum foil. Spread 225g of meat mixture in the lower third of the tortilla, leaving space at the edges.
- 8Fold both sides of the tortilla inwards towards the center, then fold the bottom up and roll tightly. Wrap the burrito tightly in aluminum foil.
- 9Repeat steps for all 6 burritos. Freeze for up to 3 months.
- 10To defrost, microwave at 260 watts for 7-8 minutes, then at 620 watts for 3-4 minutes, or until hot.
