Notes
Swap cheddar cheese with Monterey Jack or pepper jack for extra flavor.
Add sliced jalapeños or hot sauce for a spicy variation.
Use rotisserie chicken to save preparation time.
For extra crunch, add crushed tortilla chips before rolling the burritos.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
Reheat in a skillet for the crispiest texture.
