I asked him exactly what he gets in his burritos there and did the exact same thing. The only difference is that the Chipotle burritos are about $5 and mine are about $.50 when done in bulk.

They just tucked the ends in, making it seem fuller. Yours looks yummy!!

I tuck both ends so they are smaller looking but the freeze well this way. I used to take the time (tons of time) to wrap each burrito with freezer paper. Now I find it works just fine and dandy to place them on a cookie sheet and freeze, then place in a gallon ziploc bags. Save time and money! I wish I had figured that out sooner. P.S. my fam loved the mexican pizzas ( and the kids are super picky)Breehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02263004522794896432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14881033.post-59820757692190169732009-08-05T21:41:09.581-04:002009-08-05T21:41:09.581-04:00I'm sure your burritos tasted better, but in r...I'm sure your burritos tasted better, but in reference to Taco Bell's burrito... keep in mind, the tortilla is wrapped different, so, yes, it does look like a different size. Both ends are tucked in on the TB burrito, but it is the same size tortilla that you used for your burritos. And I'm sure they used more filling, that's why it's fatter... but ALL restaurants give bigger porportions than we do at home... <br /><br />And TB's beef is REAL beef, it's just crumbled a lot more than I know that I do at home. Yes, I know this, because I once worked at TB a long, long time ago.<br /><br />Disclaimer: I was not approached by TB to defend them... I'm just giving MY opinion. ;o)A Christian Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11059004750287298358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14881033.post-3154582953152977172009-08-05T21:18:58.987-04:002009-08-05T21:18:58.987-04:00I'm sure your homemade burritos were a zillion...I'm sure your homemade burritos were a zillion times better than anything from fast food---taco bell meat isn't fit for a dog....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
