BLT Burrito

The BLT deserves to take some new formats. I turned that into a burrito which was so fun. It has rice, bacon, greens that can take the heat, and tomatoes. I added some cheese but would use even more next time! Don’t be like me!

BLT Burrito
Ingredients: (for 2)

2 tortilla wraps
~6 strips of bacon, cooked and crumbled
2/3 cup of cooked rice/grain of choice
tomatoes
arugula or spinach
cheese (mine was herbed fontina)

Directions:
Warm the rice and chop the veggies.
Spoon the rice onto the tortillas, grate cheese on top, greens, tomatoes, and bacon. Add a 2nd round of cheese!

Heat a skillet or griddle to medium heat. Spray with nonstick spray.
Fold the sides inward and roll the burrito tightly.
Pan fry the burritos until golden on each side and warmed through.

Slice and enjoy!

Add more cheese and this will be delicious. I love the crumbled bacon.

Cheeseburger Burrito

I love anything in a burrito format – sometimes I call them hot wraps if there isn’t any rice. This one was such a winner and a great way for beloved flavors in winter, on the go, or just to shake things up. I did Thanksgiving inspired ones and a Chicken & Broccoli with rice one, and Chicken, Bacon & Ranch ones too.

These are a great use for small quantities of leftovers: like rice and ground meat. They can always become rice bowls too.

Warm a pan to medium heat and a drizzle of oil or non-stick spray.
Fold two opposite sides and roll the burrito onto itself and keep tucking the sides in.
Pan fry the burritos, seam side down first, until warmed through and toasted until golden on the outside. Use tongs to keep them rolled while toasting.

Enjoy!

I loved this. The smaller amount of meat is nicely balanced with rice and fresh elements in this way versus as a tiny slider. I love the warm parts and melty cheese with fresh greens, tomatoes, and pickles.
