Tips

  • Allow the burritos to cool before wrapping in foil
  • Wrap in foil and store in the fridge for up to a week or in the freezer for a couple months
  • To reheat, remove the foil, wrap in a decently damp paper towel and microwave for 3-4 minutes from the fridge or 7-8 minutes from the freezer, flipping over at halfway, unwrap carefully from the paper towel air-fry or toast in the pan or airfry for a couple minutes to get crispy and enjoy!
