Make-Ahead Burritos image

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.

These burritos were a lifesaver! I made a big batch on Sunday and had breakfast and lunch all week. They were so easy to make and reheat, and they were delicious. I will definitely be making these again.
