Why buy burritos when they’re so simple to make? Save time with precooked chicken (you can also use leftovers!) and budget-friendly staples like canned beans, shredded cheese, salsa and frozen corn. Then, step up your burrito game by adding creamy avocado and fresh lime juice. Wrap in foil, and pack for a homemade lunch.<\/span><\/p>\n Active time:<\/b> 15 minutes | <\/span>Total time:<\/b> 20 minutes<\/span><\/p>\n Ingredients<\/b><\/p>\n Directions<\/b><\/p>\n Warm the chicken (if desired) and chop into bite-size pieces.<\/span><\/p>\n In a small bowl, combine the chicken, corn, black beans, 1 tbsp cilantro, cheese, 1\/2 avocado and 2 tbsp salsa. Mix well to combine. Add salt and pepper. In a blender or food processor, combine the lime juice and the remaining avocado, salsa and cilantro. Blend until creamy. Taste for seasoning, adding more lime juice or salt as needed.<\/span><\/p>\n Spread 1\/3 of the chicken filling into the center of a flour tortilla. Fold in the sides, and bring up the bottom of the tortilla, tucking in the ends. Keep rolling, pressing and creasing the end of the tortilla as you finish rolling it up. Top with avocado cream, and, if desired, more salsa, cilantro and tomatoes.<\/span><\/p>\n Serves: 3 | Serving Size: 1 burrito<\/b><\/p>\n Nutrition (per serving):<\/b> Calories: 456; Total Fat: 20g; Saturated Fat: 7g; Monounsaturated Fat: 8g; Polyunsaturated Fat: 3g; Cholesterol: 83mg; Sodium: 566mg; Carbohydrate: 34g; Dietary Fiber: 8g; Sugar: 4g; Protein: 35g<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n Nutrition Bonus:<\/b> Potassium: 535mg; Iron: 20%; Vitamin A: 10%; Vitamin C: 25%; Calcium: 25%<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n Originally published August 23, 2016; Updated July 2026<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n The post Mexican Burrito with Chicken & Avocado<\/a> appeared first on MyFitnessPal Blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Why buy burritos when they\u2019re so simple to make?
