Grilled Burrito Recipe - an easy and fast weeknight dinner option #YesYouCAN #ad | mybigfathappylife.com

I don’t know about you but there are always nights that I need a quick dinner that pleases the whole family.  Whether it’s coming home late from work, a quick dinner before sports practice or needing to feed a crowd during the holidays.  One of my go to dishes is grilled burritos.  Bonus points for this dinner because it makes so much that I freeze over half the recipe for another night!

I found all the ingredients that I needed to make Grilled Burritos at my local Walmart including RO*TEL, PAM and avocados.  It’s always so nice to get all of my shopping done in one trip.

I love that this recipe is customizable to fit everyone’s different tastes.  If you do not like one of the ingredients leave it out particularly during assembling.  For example, my daughter does not care for melted cheese, so when I make her burrito it does not contain any cheese.

Grilled Burritos 

Like I said this recipe is so easy!  You literally dump black beans, corn, RO*TEL, shredded chicken, rice, chili powder and cumin together.  Then fold until combined.  Next layer on a flour tortilla sour cream, shredded cheese, avocado and chicken mixture.  Fold the ends of the tortilla in and the sides of the tortilla.  I use a little bit of sour cream to secure the sides closed.  In a frying pan sprayed with PAM over low heat, grill the burrito until the tortilla is golden brown.  For the full recipe see below.

    This would be one of my favorite meals of the week! My hubby would totally love to start with grilling the chicken outside, then finishing off the burritos to give that grilled effect! Delicious! #client

    Tacos and burritos are one of our go-to meals, too. I’ll have to try the pan-grilling technique to change things up a bit! Thanks for linking up with Merry Monday 🙂

      Thank you Emily! I love how the cheese and sour cream melt together to create a creaminess.
