Burrito Madness!

In case you were wondering, here's what we did on Sunday morning (happy birthday Frank!):

In case you can't tell, that's approximately 40 burritos ready to be frozen. Some breakfast, some normal. The idea is we mass produce a bunch of burritos one day and freeze them, then they make tasty, healthy, cheap, and easy lunches (or breakfasts) for weeks and months (hopefully not years) to come.

And, in case you were wondering, here's what goes into 40 burritos:
  • 40 flour tortillas
  • 3 chopped onions
  • 1 big jug of salsa (24 oz)
  • 2 cups frozen peas
  • 3 cups broccoli
  • 2 chopped carrots
  • 2 small summer squash
  • several cloves diced garlic
  • 11 smoked chicken breasts, shredded (just done slowly on the grill with lots of wood chips and the top on)
"Regular" burritos only:
  • 2 lb of grated pepper jack cheese
  • ~2 cups (uncooked) of cooked rice with cilantro
  • 3 cans of refried beans
  • 2 cans of black beans
  • chipotle or green tabasco, to taste
  • 1 diced red pepper (on Tom's only)
And for breakfast burritos only:
  • 1 carton egg beaters
  • 1/3 bag potatoes o'brien
We'll report back on when we start seeing burritos in our sleep or get so sick of them that we start using them as Kong filler for Banjo.

Sounds delicious, but the photo looks like state's evidence in a drug bust.
Save us one for the April parental unit visitation.
