I'm not a big fan of burritos, but these were really good. The flavors were amazing and the tortillas were perfectly crispy. I'll definitely be making these again.

These burritos were a bit bland for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll add some more spices next time. I also think they would be better with a different type of cheese, like cheddar or pepper jack.

These burritos were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. He said they were the best turkey burritos he's ever had. I'll definitely be making them again, but I'll use less chili powder next time.
