## Equipment

- freezer
- paper towel
- microwave
- air fryer
- pan

## Tips

- Storing frozen keeps burritos tasting their best, and allows them to last for months.
- Wrap individually and freeze, or place burritos on a sheet pan and toss in the freezer uncovered (“flash freeze”) and then add to a gallon sized bag.
- Flash freezing first keeps them from sticking together while freezing.
- Remove your burrito straight from the freezer, wrap in a paper towel, microwave for 1.5-2 minutes to thaw (flip halfway) - the goal is to get the interior softened but not hot.
- Air fry (I usually do 375 degrees for 6-7 minutes), or pan fry until crispy.
- You don’t need to spend hours and hours prepping - start by making 1-2 recipes a week which will usually yield 20-30 burritos/meals.
