They always explode 😔


Idk how to 'cook' them in the microwave without it swelling and spilling out. Even tried in the oven and they did the same 😔

And no, I don't have an air fryer…

    Defrost it then deep fryer and then put cheese inside of it

    Use the power setting on your microwave. It will help to more evenly distribute the heat.

    Man, i still love the bean and cheese burritos

    Wrap it loosely in a paper towel first! That’s what it says to do on the wrapper.

    also turn it so the seam part is upwards. it will still explode a little but more just a small opening on the top

    edit: a word

    Well, I always covered mine in a heaping pile of cheddar cheese, which effectively contained the splooge

    If they don’t explode you did it wrong. Some things just “are”. Don’t fight it.

    Is that the El Monterey Green Chile burrito?

    Going in and going out. Tis tradition.

    Half one side half the other. The second time around with the seam facing up

    I do some fridge burritos thusly:
    1:30 at 70% power and then another minute at the same power.

    I wish to have some guidelines for a frozen one.

    I microwave for half the recommended time, just to thaw it a bit, then pop the bad boy in the toaster oven. Flip it halfway through.

    yrs ago would nuke them in packaging. kept tortilla soft, while
    cooking filling sufficiently.

    I cook 2 for 2 minutes then cut them in half and go 90 seconds more

    Bake this with enchilada sauce on top and then melt Mexican blend or Queso….. or both

    You’ll thank me later

    lol it does doesn’t it. Ugh I e just excepted it as the normal way to cook it.

    1) An air fryer is just an oven. Some people feel the need to have multiple sizes of oven, for some reason.

    2) Cook the ingredients, then make the burrito. If it’s already closed when you heat it, it will explode.

    If not frozen, wrap in moist paper towel, microwave 35 seconds. Perfect every time.
