Instructions
  1. Assembly instructions:
  2. Mix the chicken, red pepper, onion, beans, corn, cumin, salsa, and cheese in a bowl. Spread some onto a flour tortilla and wrap burrito style. Do this for all the tortillas. Wrap each one in foil and put in a freezer bag. Freeze.
Cooking instructions:

  1. Thaw. Remove foil and transfer burrito to a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until the burrito is crispy on the outside or heat wrapped in a paper towel in the microwave or leave in the foil and cook in the air fryer at 360° for 5-8 minutes, turning once.

Recipe Notes

One cooked chicken breast equals about 1 cup of cubed or shredded chicken, so if you have a rotisserie chicken, or leftover chicken that you'd like to use for this recipe, you can use about 3 cups to make this meal.
