Directions: |
Directions:I made these after making chicken enchiladas. I had more of my enchilada mixture left once I ran out of tortillas and though why not. Let's just throw them in a burrito and freeze them. So that's what I did.
You can use any kind of chicken you prefer. I had about 3 cups cooked chicken leftover. I had boiled a whole chicken and shredded the meat.
My pinto beans came from a pot of pinto beans I had made. You can use whatever beans you like.
Combine all ingredients in a bowl together. Layer about 3 tablespoons onto burrito size flour tortillas. Wrap your burritos. I like to freeze my burritos. I do a flash freezing method that works very well. I put the burritos on parchment paper on a baking sheet and put them in a freezer just like that without covering them for 1 hour. I then put them into gallon sized ziplock bags and store them in the freezer for whenever I want to use them. They take about 2 1/2 minutes in the microwave and always come out good. |

Notes: This was inspired by Billy's mom Barbara Gallian's enchilada recipe. The picture above is her with my daughter Melody Eve Hurt trick or treating when she was 2 years old.
