burritos
by beeprint
food is important to me. even when i am busy and don’t have time, i know that eating yummy and healthy food will help me slow down and have a better day. this winter i’ve gotten into making my own frozen burritos. they taste way better than the ones i can buy at the store and instead of paying 2.99 a pop, i might pay 6-10 bucks for all the ingredients to make a dozen at home. a couple of weeks ago i decided to use up all the tomatillos that lucy and i had gotten in our bountiful basket to make some salsa. i had a bunch of beans that i had made and frozen, i had a pack of tortillas, so all i needed was to make up a pot of rice. it was awesome. it took about 40 minutes start to finish and now i have a freezer stocked with burritos for the days when i don’t have left overs for lunch.
i was originally inspired to make frozen burritos by this post over at shutterbean. tracy’s photos are much better than mine and she has detailed instructions on the process.
also, check out miriam’s menu planning service if you are in a food slump. she always has great ideas for delicious and easy ways to eat healthy. (scroll down if you don’t see the text right away).
that is SO wierd. sharon is in the process of soaking an abundance of pinto beans in order to put together an abundance of burritos to be frozen. did you two talk about this or is there just something in the universe telling us to make frozen burritos this week
…might also be due to the fact that, as you mentioned, paying $3+ dollars for one tiny lousy burrito at new fros is getting annoying and costly.
anyways, they look DELICIOUS. great photos

i think sharon and i did have a conversation about burritos last weekend….but maybe we are just on the same magic burrito wavelength? enjoy your burritos – i am sure they will be totally delicious!
Great minds think alike. I recently posted a sort of ode to burrito making on my blog as well. Happy eating!
your breakfast burrito looked delicious! so glad you are still blogging…
