  • 3 remove from pan & set aside.
  • 4 cook bacon until crisp, set on paper towel to drain excess fat.

  • 7 add onions & cook until translucent.
  • 8 add garlic & potatoes to the onions.
  • 9 cook until potatoes are to your desired crispness. (it may be necessary to add more oil during cooking, but be careful as too much will make the potatoes soggy.).

  • 15 prepare a large cookie sheet (but small enough to fit in the freezer), by lining it with waxed paper to prevent the burritos from sticking.
  • 16 take about 3 soup spoonfuls of mixture and spread along the middle of the tortilla.
  • 17 take care not to get it too close to the ends.
  • 18 spoon some salsa along the filling.

  • 22 when the cookie sheet is full, place in freezer until the burritos are frozen (at least 3 hours).
