Crispy Baked Burritos

I love a good crispy fried burrito or is that a chimichanga? I don't know but I love them, that crispy flaky flour shell gets me every time. Except where can you buy them anymore? Doesn't matter now that I can make these Crispy Baked Burritos at home.

Ingredients

  • 31 ounce can refried beans
  • 1/2 cup salsa
  • 4 ounces cheese shredded
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • oil for brushing on top

Instructions

  • preheat the broiler on high
  • heat the beans in a sauce pan with the salsa
  • divide the beans evenly between the tortillas
  • top each with 1 ounce of cheese
  • roll the burritos up folding one side in first, then the two side and give it a roll to finish it
  • place the burritos in a heat proof pan and brush with oil
  • place in the lower section of the oven and cook for about 10 minutes
  • letting them bake crispy
  • Putting them in the lower part of the oven is essentially baking them and then when the broiler cycles on it will make the tops crispy brown. Be careful if you put them too near the element they will burn pretty quick. And then you'll be sad after making such a quick delicious dinner.
