Warm one flour tortilla in a microwave oven for about 10 seconds and put it on an even and clean countertop.

Take any proportions of the ingredients for the topping you like, but make sure your burrito will not burst.

Pre-heat the oven to 180 C (356 F), cover your burritos with foil and bake for about 40-45 minutes. Serve with sour cream or guacamole sauce (if you have the one). Bon appétit!
