Beef Burrito
An on a regular basis Beef Burrito recipe, full of a easy, tremendous tasty seasoned beef, rice and different fillings of selection. These Burritos are a sensible freezer standby as a result of they are simply nearly as good made recent or frozen then reheated. The burrito beef filling is particularly good – made with a selfmade Mexican seasoning that’s method higher than a packet of Previous El Paso!
Having a stash of burritos within the freezer makes me really feel smug. Together with selfmade Frozen Pizzas, these are one of many all time final freezer meals.
Besides burritos have the added bonus that you simply don’t even must soiled a tray to reheat them, or a plate to eat them. Meals you possibly can eat along with your arms all the time charges extremely in my world!!! 😂
I name this Beef Burrito recipe an “on a regular basis beef burrito” as a result of beef filling apart, it’s a terrific one for including in what you’ve got and what you need. The important thing a part of this recipe is the Beef Burrito Filling – extremely seasoned with a selfmade spice combine that tastes like Previous El Paso – besides it’s preservative free!
Freezer burritos: filling ideas
- Use components that freeze effectively
- Use cabbage as an alternative of lettuce – cabbage holds as much as freezing higher
- Solely use a small quantity of “watery” greens like tomato as they develop into much more watery as soon as defrosted
- Different uncooked greens utilized in burritos that don’t freeze effectively embrace: avocado, cucumber
- Cook dinner greens like capsicum/peppers, zucchini, carrot. Cube and add to Beef Filling.
The Beef Filling is the primary flavour element on this burrito recipe. It’s extremely seasoned and juicy so it gives the “wetness” within the burrito in addition to the flavour mixing via the opposite components while you roll it up.
So aside from the Beef Burrito Filling, there’s limitless potentialities for what to place within the burrito! For this recipe, I’ve chosen a mixture of components that freeze effectively:
-
Beef Burrito Filling – juicy and filled with flavour!
-
Plain white rice – or attempt brown rice, quinoa, or this Mexican Pink Rice!)
-
Corn
-
Black beans
-
Cabbage or lettuce
-
Diced tomato
-
Pink onion
-
Cheese
-
Coriander/cilantro
I like to make use of foil to roll up the burritos because it holds it collectively after which I can reheat it within the foil within the oven.
To freeze, I wrap in cling wrap (for further air tight assurance) then put it in a ziplock bag or hermetic container.
To reheat the burrito, I merely defrost within the fridge in a single day then pop it within the ovenin the foil to make it crisp and warmth via. If I forgot to defrost in a single day, then I take it out of the foil, microwave on low to defrost, then wrap it up within the foil once more and pop it within the oven to crisp up.
I completely forgot to take a photograph of what to dip burritos in. They do want one thing as a result of you possibly can’t make the filling too moist, in any other case it makes the tortilla soggy.
For simplicity, my go-to is bitter cream or yoghurt, typically with a dollop of some form of chilli sauce. If I really feel like making extra of an effort or I’m doing these for a bunch (I like doing burritos for tenting), then I’ll make Restaurant Type Salsa (as a result of it’s easy, it’s good for dipping) or this Avocado Dipping Sauce.
So – have I satisfied you that you simply want to fill your freezer with these burritos??? – Johnsat xx
