Notes

Be as creative as you would like. Add all sorts of ingredients from shredded meat to vegetables into your fried burritos. Feel free to create your own little salsa bar at home with your favorite toppings and find out what you like dipping them in best! I love dipping them in ranch dressing and guacamole. Kick it up a notch, too! Spoon a thin layer of hot sauce over the crisp bean burritos for a spicy variation.
