Preparation

Chef’s notes

Make Ahead:
The burritos may be assembled a few hours ahead of time, wrapped tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerated, before cooking.
To reheat leftover burritos, wrap in foil and warm in a 350°F oven for about 15 minutes. (They won't be as crisp as they are fresh out of the pan, but they reheat well.)
