How to Make the Perfect Thanksgiving Burrito
Ingredients:
1 large tortilla
1 cup mashed sweet potatoes
1 cup shredded turkey
1/2 cup cranberry sauce
1/4 cup stuffing
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Salt and pepper, to taste
To start, warm up your tortilla in the microwave for 20 seconds or on a pan for a few seconds on each side. This will make it easier to wrap and prevent it from tearing. Once warmed, spread the mashed sweet potatoes in the center of the tortilla, leaving about an inch of space around the edges.
Next, add the shredded turkey on top of the sweet potatoes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to add some extra flavor. Then, add a layer of cranberry sauce on top of the turkey. This will give the burrito a tangy and sweet kick.
Now it's time to add the stuffing. You can use your favorite Thanksgiving stuffing recipe or even use store-bought. Just make sure it's cooled down before adding it to the burrito.
Finally, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top of everything. This will help hold the burrito together and add a delicious cheesy element to the dish.
To wrap the burrito, fold in the sides and then roll it up tightly. Place it on a pan over medium heat and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and crispy.
Optional additions:
Feel free to get creative and add any other Thanksgiving leftovers you have on hand to the burrito. Some great options include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or even a dollop of gravy on top.
Once cooked, let the burrito cool for a few minutes before slicing it in half and serving. You can also top it with some extra cranberry sauce, gravy, or even a drizzle of hot sauce for some added flavor.
This Thanksgiving burrito recipe is a fun and tasty way to switch up your Thanksgiving traditions. It's also a great way to use up any leftovers and create a whole new meal. Give it a try and enjoy the delicious combination of holiday flavors in every bite.
