Easy, quick and delicious, right?
- You can accompany these burritos with a salad or serve them with a little Mexican tomato sauce.
- If you make more, nothing prevents you from freezing them to eat them later.
- Consider preparing more to take to the office in your lunch box. They heat up very well.
- You want a lighter version those burritos? So replace the crème fraîche with bifidus yogurt or Greek yogurt.
- You can add a few drops of lemon to fresh cream to give it a sour taste.
- If you prefer a spicier dish, you can add onions, garlic, cumin and chilli to the preparation.
- You don't like cilantro? Replace it with another aromatic herb such as basil or pesto.
- If you don't have mozzarella, use grated cheddar or gruyère cheese.
- You can even substitute chicken for shrimp or use leftover roast chicken to make this recipe.
- Are you a vegetarian? So replace the chicken with black beans .
- For an even more complete dish, add a handful of spinach. It's delicious.
