  • Fillings: Get creative with your fillings! You can use any combination of meat, beans, vegetables, and cheese that you like. Just be sure to not overload the tortillas, or they will be difficult to roll up.

  • Baking: Place the burritos seam-side down in a greased baking dish. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until the burritos are heated through and the cheese is melted.
