Gooey rice and bean freezer burritos! Can you say YUM? When it comes to freezer meals, I really try and make them as easy as possible. This means, very little to no cooking required before freezing. With my breakfast burritos, I find they take a little longer because you have to cook the bacon/sausage and get everything prepared before rolling the tortillas. So rice and bean freezer burritos recipe as follows.
Instructions
Step 1: Gather your ingredients. Flour tortillas (burrito size), 1 box of Rice-a-Roni, 1 can of refried beans, 1 can of diced tomatoes.
Step 2: Cook the Spanish rice according to package directions, set aside once it’s cooked.
Step 3: Heat up the refried beans and set aside.
Step 4: Take a few tortillas at a time and warm them up. They will be easier to fold if they are warm.
Step 5: Fill the burritos – spoonful of beans, a spoonful of rice, sprinkle with cheese.
Step 6: Roll up the burrito and place them on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper.
Step 7: Continue rolling up the burritos until you’ve used all of the tortillas.
Step 8: Place the sheet pan of burritos into the freezer and let them flash-freeze for 30 minutes.
Step 9: Once they are partially frozen – place the burritos in a large ziplock bag, or you can wrap foil around them individually.
How do I reheat my burritos?
To reheat – take out of the freezer, wrap a damp paper towel around the burrito, and place it in the microwave on high for 2 minutes.
Serve with toppings of choice.
