So other than the Beef Burrito Filling, there’s endless possibilities for what to put in the burrito! How to freeze and reheat burritos I like to use foil to roll up the burritos as it holds it together and then I can reheat it in the foil in the oven. To reheat the burrito, I simply defrost in the fridge overnight then pop it in the ovenin the foil to make it crisp and heat through. If I forgot to defrost overnight, then I take it out of the foil, microwave on low to defrost, then wrap it up in the foil again and pop it in the oven to crisp up.

For simplicity, my go-to is sour cream or yoghurt, sometimes with a dollop of some sort of chilli sauce. I convinced you that you need to fill your freezer with these burritos?
