My husband and I have been making this for some time... we always have the ingredients on hand! It's nice to able to throw a dinner together in a matter of moments. We usually forget about thawing the burritos overnight, so we microwave them for about 30 seconds then cut them up and bake for about 30 min. Turns out wonderfully everytime!

YUM. How easy and tasty can it get? I used a package of 9 beef and bean burritos to fill up the pan, and the rest per recipe. VERY tasty--got hearty approvals from DH and son. "A definite do-again!" was the consensus. Thanks for such an easy comfort food fix.

I made these about a year ago when I was craving Mexican food and didn't have anything thawed (bought them originally for my husband's lunch). After baking, I add chopped lettuce, tomatoes and onions (and a little hot sauce) to the top of each serving. My family thought I made them from scratch! :) These are great for working folks.

This is soooooooo good! I whipped up some of my quickie sour cream enchilada sauce and that really made it. I will be making this often, thanks so much for sharing!!

This was delicious. I think the previous reviewers are used to fancier cuisine. I used a green encilada sauce and alternated bean and cheese and green chili and beef burritos. It was an easy to prepare recipe and very hartwarming and comforting on a cold afternoon. Also good for tight budgets and busy people.
