Steak Burrito- Moist Burittos  stuffed with tender marinated Carne Asada, cheese,  rice, avocados  and Tomatillos Salsa

When planning dinner for a week, it is common to get into a rut- preparing the same recipes over and over. I am at the same place as everyone else. I get it; it’s quick and easy to make what you are familiar with. But once in a while it is ok to stray away from your norm. I did just that by introducing tortilla in my household …now I can’t stop with endless tortilla recipes.

What makes this extra moist is this Tomatillo and Tomato Salsa.

This is one of  my ways to indulge on tortilla- Burritos loaded with beans, Mexican rice, Steak, onions, beans ,avocados and more .

When am in the mood for tex mex I always  make my own batch of tomatillos and/or tomato salsa  and save up. Always have it in my fridge ready to pair it up with my meals for an extra kick.

For an office lunch -you can make a lot of these burritos, wrap in foil paper and reheat in the microwave. Since burritos are very versatile you can pretty much customize the burrito to your taste and liking- mashed beans, Spanish rice., shrimp, vegetarian  and even make it healthy.

In this recipe I used left over rice and steak; On really rushed days, I rely on plain canned beans or refried canned beans.
