My tortilla won’t fold! If your tortillas are inflexible and difficult to fold, wrap them in a few damp paper towels and microwave for 15-20 seconds. This will make the tortillas really flexible.
My filling is coming out! Don’t use as much filling. I know if you go to a burrito place they completely stuff the burritos, but our goal here is to make a burrito that is completely sealed. You can always top the burritos with extras once you reheat them!
HOW TO FREEZE YOUR BURRITOS
After you’ve added all the fillings to your burrito, roll it into a tight cylinder, folding over the ends to keep it contained, and wrap the burrito tightly in foil. Once all your burritos are rolled and wrapped, store them in a plastic freezer-safe container, like a Ziploc, for three to six months.
Here’s how you should do it instead:
Unwrap the burrito from the foil and microwave it on defrost for seven minutes per side. This will thaw and slightly warm the fillings.
Then place the burrito in a nonstick skillet over medium heat, and cook it for a few minutes per side until it starts to brown and crisp up.
This method melts the cheese and warms the filling but also gives you a crispy, delicious tortilla!
