Sunday Recipe: Vegetarian Burrito

Burrito is simple Mexican recipe. Made from the tortillas, enchilada sauce, and varieties of vegetables. I love this recipe because it’s a perfect combination of taste and nutrition. You can make different types of filling by adding different ingredients and spices of your choice. Best thing about burrito is, you can make these in advance and refrigerate. You need to just heat and serve when required.
