These are delicious and so satisfying! I admit that I wasn't so sure when adding the pumpkin. But it is what makes these so satisfying and creamy inside. They are wonderful baked in the oven. I saved what was left and reheated them in the oven the next day. They were even better the second time! Thank you for this delicious recipe 😊

So easy and delicious! Yum! I tried the 6-8 inch large taco tortillas. They worked well but felt small when wrapping them. Next time I will try the 10 inch burrito tortillas for the extra space.
I highly recommend this recipe if you are looking for easy lunch or easy dinner option. Love that you can freeze them easily and they taste amazing when you microwave them according to the directions.

Hi, so just to confirm you don't bake prior to freezing, is that correct?
Thank you! Can't wait to try this!

In reply to Jess Lahti-Coplans. I am so happy you and your husband enjoyed! Even if you did roll and store them incorrectly ;)

I made these in advance for my husband and myself’s lunches. I used the whole wheat carb balance tortillas, black bean refried beans, and also rolled them incorrectly and stored them incorrectly. The last two were on me, lol. I really can’t taste the pumpkin! So much added nutrition and it’s invisible! I bet kids would like these too. Great substitute from our usual sad sandwiches!!!

Pumpkin? Who would have thought I could clear those pumpkin cans off the shelf AND level up a bean burrito?! Five stars for a ridiculously easy and delicious crowd-pleaser. We had this last night and it’s definitely going to be a regular in the emergency-weeknight-pantry meal category. Nope, I’m not getting paid. I just got really excited over a bean burrito 🤪😅

In reply to Bina. Hi Bina! I recommend pulling from the freezer the night before. These burritos are a bit thicker and you want to ensure they are fully defrosted for lunchtime. I throw them in with an ice pack and my kids enjoy them cold.

Hi
I’m looking for easy freezable lunch box recipes and I love the sound of this.
Would you put in a lunchbox straight from frozen? It can’t be reheated at school.
Looking forward to trying this out and seeing what other brilliant ideas you have to save the lunch-box-stress 🤯😵‍💫
Thanks

In reply to Elaine. I am so glad you gave this a try with the pumpkin! It really does add a nice flavor.

These were delicious!! I was wary about using pumpkin but I didn't even notice it. They had a really nice texture and flavor. Thank you for another great, healthy recipe!

In reply to Tricia. You can also take the filling and dehydrate it at 145 for 8 to 12 hours and it makes for amazing backpacking / bikepacking food. To rehydrate filling, boil 3/4 cup of water and soak for 20 minutes.

Made homemade refried beans and added half a can of organic pureed pumpkin. I didn't tell my daughters until after they ate. They were surprised and didn't taste the pumpkin. I loved the extra creaminess it added to the beans. So good! Thanks for suggesting the pumpkin!
