photo by seesko
- Ready In:
- 15mins
- Ingredients:
- 8
- Yields:
-
10 mini burritos
ingredients
- 354.88 ml cooked chicken breasts, shredded
- 236.59 ml cooked beans (pinto, black or whatever you like)
- 1 roma tomato, chopped
- 59.14 ml tomato sauce
- 1-2 canned jalapeno chile, finely chopped
- 118.29 ml shredded cheese (Monterey. Manchego, Oaxaca, Cheddar)
- 236.59 ml shredded lettuce (optional)
- 10 regular size flour tortillas
directions
- In a large bowl, mix chicken with the beans, tomato, tomato sauce and jalapeno. Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick skillet over low heat. If you know how to heat tortillas in a griddle, then do so, otherwise warm them slightly in the microwave between paper towels. Place one tortilla in a plate. Put about 2 tbs filling in the center of the tortilla, top with a little cheese and lettuce, if desired. Fold the sides of the tortillas over the filling, then fold the side closest to you over the filling and turn burritos over, enclosing the filling. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling. Place seam side down on the skillet so that the burritos get nice and crispy on the outside and the cheese melts. Serve hot.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I began cooking as a kid with my mom. I cook mostly Mexican food, but my best recipes are the ones that I improvise at the last minute! Especially desserts, which I love to cook, but always forget to write down.
I'm a stay at home mom of three kids- 2 boys (3 & 5years old) and a 1 year old baby girl. My husband and I have been married for nearly 8 years.
I want to take a moment to thank all of you who have made my recipes and even took the time to review and/or photograph them. I appreciate every one of them!
