This is a pairing perfection. The burritos have a hint of spice but are not spicy. They contain classic Mexican spices without emitting any heat. There was plenty of savory and salty notes that paired well with our wine that is fruit forward, has plenty of acid and is not a tannic bomb.
5- Warm an individual tortilla shell in the microwave for 5 seconds. (this makes it easier to roll) Place a dollop of refried beans, some of the turkey mixture and a handful of cheese onto one side of the tortilla. Be sure not to go too close to the edges or you’ll have a blow out. 6- Roll up the tortilla three quarters of the way, then tuck the two sides in and complete rolling. 8- Bake in a 350o pre-heated oven for about 15 minutes. Just long enough to warm the burritos and melt the cheese.Ground Turkey Burritos
