MAKE-AHEAD BURRITOS

We have two children who keep us busy, so I love meals I can just pull out of the freezer. The burritos are wrapped individually so it's easy to take out only the number you need. I serve them with canned refried beans and Spanish rice from a boxed mix. -Jennifer Shafer, Durham, North Carolina.

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Spread sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season well with salt and pepper and toss to coat.
  • Roast sweet potatoes until tender and browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool to room temperature.
  • Heat remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Whisk eggs and milk together in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper. Pour eggs into pan and cook, stirring frequently with a rubber spatula, until they begin to set, about 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle cheese over eggs and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until eggs are no longer runny, 3 minutes more. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
  • Wrap tortillas in a dish cloth and microwave for 30 seconds to 1 minute, until pliable. To assemble each burrito: Spread about ¼ cup sweet potatoes, ⅓ cup scrambled eggs, ¼ cup black beans and 2 tablespoons chorizo in a horizontal line across the middle of the tortilla, leaving about 2 inches on either side. Drizzle with 1 to 2 tablespoons salsa verde. Fold left and right sides over the filling, then tightly roll from the bottom of the tortilla to form a burrito. Tightly wrap in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Repeat with remaining tortillas, and freeze for up to 1 month. Alternatively, refrigerate for up to three days.
  • To serve: Remove burrito from plastic or foil and place on a plate in the microwave. Microwave on high for 4 to 5 minutes, until filling is hot and tortilla is tender. Serve immediately with your choice of hot sauce or salsa. If reheating from the refrigerator, microwave on high for 1 ½ to 2 minutes.

Steps:

  • 1. Brown ground beef in skillet, remove meat and drain off fat. Add 1 Tbsp. canola or olive oil to the pan, add diced pepper, onion, celery, and sautee' until onion and celery have softened. Add previously cooked ground beef back into the pan, stir to combine with veggies.
  • 2. Add Burrito Seasoning, Rotel tomatoes, garlic powder, oregano, ground cumin, cilantro, and salt and pepper to taste; simmer on low for 5 minutes. Add diced raw potato (or cooked rice if you prefer), continue simmering for another 15 minutes (you want the potatoes 'done' but not 'mushy'). Remove from heat, stir in drained, sliced black olives if desired.
  • 3. Place butter in skillet along with refried beans and mash together butter and beans and mashing any leftover whole beans. Cook on medium until bubbling. When meat and beans are done, you are ready to assemble burritos.
  • 4. Heat each tortilla in a skillet (I use an iron skillet) with just a bit of non-stick spray (Pam), continue heating each tortilla and place on a covered plate. Alternate method: place one burrito shell on a plate and put in the microwave oven for 20 seconds, remove from microwave. Fill as follows:
  • 5. Place a line of heated refried beans down the center of the tortilla. Add some shredded cheese to the line of beans. Then place beef mixture on top of the cheese. Fold the tortilla over and roll it to form the burrito. Repeat until all beef and beans are gone.
  • 6. Wrap each burrito in Saran Wrap or aluminum foil, put them in a zip-lock freezer bag, and freeze them.
  • 7. For a quick meal, take one or more out, unwrap, place on a microwave safe plate, and cover. Microwave for 6 minutes (or until hot thru). Eat plain, or garnish with grated cheese, shredded lettuce, diced tomato, and salsa. This way you can enjoy a burrito any time you want one.

1 lb ground beef
1/2 c diced green or red pepper
1/2 c diced onion
1/2 c diced celery (optional)
1 c diced raw potato, or cooked rice
1 pkg burrito seasoning mix
1 can(s) rotel tomatoes
1/2 tsp each: garlic powder, oregano, ground cumin
1 1/2 tsp dried cilantro (or fresh if you have it)
1/2 tsp salt and pepper to taste
1 small can sliced black olives
2 Tbsp butter
1 can(s) refried beans (with or without green chilis)
2 c cheddar or mexican blend shredded cheese
1 pkg burrito or fajita size flour tortillas
