Bob,

I'd suggest pouring some enchilada sauce on the bottom of the pan so it
cooks into the burritos from all sides..

Or not.

Best,

I can see where you'd think that.

The "Extra Hot" (about what the "Medium" was 20 years ago) doesn't
come in a bigass jar. The picante sauce goes on the salad. And chips.

Couldn't you just go to the taco bell drive through?

That's what helps make it trashy.

Read the list of ingredients. Make note of any dyes, preservatives,
modified whatever, unpronounceable chemicals, non-food additives, etc.
Then read the nutrition information, looking closely at the percent RDA
of salt, sugar and saturated fat. THEN decide whether you want to
incorporate that into your own body. It's up to you.

Really? Pace's Medium is what I used to buy, and it was pretty good!

Do they still make the Enchirito? With green sauce?

What kind of burrito? I like the bean burritos. Don't forget a
thin layer of grated monterey jack cheese.

Why not make a tray of flat enchiladas instead? At least you'll know
what you're putting into it (I vote for chicken with that green
enchilada sauce). Buy a rotisserie chicken, make it into lunch or
dinner and shred the rest for your enchiladas.

No red with that green! It's not christmas style.

The only difference between yer dish and a Stouffer's enchilada family
meal is your's isn't half rice. Probly taste better, too.

Those frozen meals are pretty expensive for what they are -- mostly rice.

I may have a disposable aluminum foil pan...

For a fast lunch, I sometimes nuke a frozen burrito until it is
defrosted... cover with a little salsa and shredded cheese then back in
the nuke-u-lator long enough to heat through and melt the cheese. Serve
with some nachos on the side. Quick and easy.

I wouldn't do it simply because those things are loaded with soy.

But many years ago, I would get a frozen bean burrito (no soy), put it in a
single serve casserole, top with enchilada sauce, tomato sauce, chopped
tomatoes or whatever similar thing I had in the house. Strips of onion and
green pepper and cheese. I would bake it in the oven at home or at work,
nuke it. People were jealous.

Now, once in a while I will make a casserole with canned tamales. I will
unwrap them and layer them with onion and green pepper strips and add some
chopped tomatoes and a little chili powder. Cheese is good on this too.
Bake through and top with black olives.

I've done it with burritos I made and froze myself (and red enchilada
sauce). It was actually quite good. (I put the cheese on at the
beginning, too, and just cook the whole thing on 350 until everything's
heated through.)
