Homemade Freezer Meals: The Breakfast Burrito
January 1, 2012 By 17 Comments
My solution…homemade freezer breakfasts! For about $12 (less if you have your own backyard hens) you can pre-make 24 breakfast burritos that will be ready to go out the door first thing in the morning!
The best part about it is, I control the ingredients! No overly processed crap necessary:)

Ready to Eat
-For the best results, remove a burrito from freezer the night before to thaw. Then place in toaster oven, convection oven, or microwave to warm. Wrap and you’re ready to go!
-Forget to thaw it the night before? Yeah…I do that all the time too! It’s okay to remove the burrito from the freezer and heat it up the morning of. Just be sure to adjust your warming time accordingly
