Tips & Notes

  • Freezing Instructions: Wrap each burrito in plastic wrap and squeeze out as much air as possible. Wrap again with a layer of foil. Label each individually wrapped burrito and freeze for up to 3 months.
  • To Reheat from Frozen: Unwrap the frozen burrito and place it on a plate in the microwave. Use the defrost setting and cook for 2-3 minutes, flipping every minute. Then, microwave on high for 60-90 seconds, or until hot.
  • To Reheat from Thawed: Transfer the breakfast burrito from the freezer to the refrigerator the night before. When ready to warm, unwrap the frozen burrito, place it on a plate, and microwave on high for 60-90 seconds, or until hot.
