on Jan 10, 2018, Updated Sep 07, 2023 6 Comments Do you ever have a craving for something to such a level that you can either get in your car and drive 15 to 20 minutes (plus wait at the restaurant for it) for it or head into the kitchen and whip it up yourself? Yep. That’s exactly what happened to me the other day. I had a craving for a shredded chicken burrito with beans, rice and all the good stuff like cheese and sour cream and avocados and pico de gallo and, and, and. You get the picture. I would clearly have been the one walking down the line at the restaurant saying, “yes, please” to every single addition the guy behind the counter asked me if I wanted on my burrito. But instead of spending over an hour that it would have taken to go get said meal, I went into the kitchen to make it our supper. And it was just as I had craved. Okay, so here’s the thing. Each week, I generally go ahead and prep ingredients so that I can use them in other recipes throughout the week. I’ll go ahead and bake chicken breasts to use in chicken salad or even chicken enchiladas, I’ll make pico de gallo, cut up vegetables, you name it. I’ll even take a look at the menu plan for the week along with our family schedule. Then I can decide if I need to make entire meals earlier in the week so that it makes the busier weeknights even easier. Throw cravings into that mix and things can get really interesting quickly! 🙂 But luckily, for this particular week, I was covered since I’d already prepared a batch of these chicken burritos for the freezer. Meaning, I was able to pull them out of the freezer, heat them and serve within minutes! Minutes! Now, I just need to restock my freezer! Here’s my Chicken Burritos Recipe. I hope they help your craving, too! 🙂 Enjoy!Robyn xo
