Turkey Burrito

Turkey Burrito

There’s nothing more satisfying than putting all of those leftovers from the Christmas feast together into one tasty meal. Somehow they manage to taste even better the day after! Just imagine adding all of those tempting bits into a turkey Burrito, accompanied by our Gran Luchito Refried Beans, Gran Luchito Chipotle Mayo and Gran Luchito Fire Roasted Serranos.

This genius burrito recipe works better when using leftover roast turkey, chicken or even pork. Whether you add it hot or cold we can guarantee that it will taste amazing. Feel free to add any other tasty leftovers! That’s one of the beauties of making turkey burritos; they are great vessels to bring flavoursome elements together into one delicious wrap.

In this recipe, our Gran Luchito Burrito Wraps are warmed up over a hot pan, then topped with a spoonful of warm Gran Luchito Refried Beans. This is then followed by a layer of a quick zingy and spicy slaw made with brussels sprouts and Gran Luchito Chipotle Mayo, finished with slices of roasted meat and a few Gran Luchito Serrano Green Chillies for extra heat.
