So I made up 10 egg/cheese/bacon burritos. 5 in freezer and 5 in the fridge. And... then I got to thinking that a real burrito would sure taste good. I had tortillas, I had cheese, I had meat, I had tomato paste. I had no taco sauce or mix BUT I had sloppy joe mix...

Chopped onion, chopped garlic, meat into the pan. Sloppy Joe mix with a little water, mixed. Then tomato paste and worchestersauce into that and mixed and into the meat pan where it simmered for a while and got all yummy looking.

Tortillas, cheese, meat - garnished with sour cream and rolled. Ok. So. Delicious. My plan was to just put the rest of the meat in the fridge and then make as needed but while I was washing the dishes, I thought... why?

So I just went ahead and assembled and rolled the other 9 tortillas. Some in the fridge and the rest in the freezer.

They are the perfect size. One if I'm not really hungry and I just need protein for my pill. Two will make a lovely lunch or dinner.

They will nuke nicely OR air fry.

I'm a genius.


Also turns out good thing I didn't want to go anywhere today. Turns out we're playing Big Bang Theory in this building today. One elevator broke last week and some story about why it isn't fixed yet. The other one broke last night. It may be fixed now, but I ain't taking a chance. I have a dread fear of coming home and no elevator.

I can walk up to the second floor. And struggle to the third but the fourth is just beyond my fat old body with my crappy lungs.

So... happy here, thank you very much. And I am burrito wealthy!!

One of the best things about living in California was discovering burritos. I love 'em.

YAY burritos!!! :)

My freezer contains a homemade lasagna and several bags of homemade pasta sauce so I'm pretty set too. But I haven't made burritos in a long time . . . *Ponders*

Burritos (and enchiladas while we're at it) are SUCH good make-ahead foods! They taste the same or better as leftovers. I always make them when I know we'll both be busy and won't have time to cook. Easy hot meal.
