Recipe Questions & Answers
- → What type of tortillas work best?
Large flour tortillas (about 10 inches) work best for easily wrapping and holding all the flavorful fillings.

Yes, simply omit the bacon or substitute with sautéed mushrooms or plant-based sausage for a vegetarian-friendly option.
- → How do I keep the filling warm before serving?
Wrap the burritos in foil and keep them warm in a low oven, or prepare ahead and freeze for later use.
- → What vegetables enhance the flavor?
Red and green bell peppers, red onions, cherry tomatoes, and fresh cilantro add vibrant colors and fresh, crisp taste.
