Wow, you posted how to cook a frozen Burrito in an Air Fryer too and now you think that you somehow are the only one who could create such an impeccable meal.
Um no, get over yourself, jackass.
I’m confused; you didn’t create anything and yet you are butt hurt over how to heat up a frozen Burrito…hahaha.

It does work, but don’t understand why I should have to flip something over in an air fryer? Isn’t that the purpose of an air fryer, to be able to cook all the way around equally?
Nothing like enjoying a meal that the entire family will love. This looks so delicious and I love the quick and easy Air Fryer option too.
Wow never thought of using an air fryer for this! Thanks for this idea
Great way to use my airfryer. My son loves burritos and I will be showing him how to do it this way!
I had no idea you could cook frozen burritos in the air fryer! I typically just use a microwave to warm them up – I feel like this way will make them taste a lot better heated up! Can’t wait to try this soon!
Never thought about doing this in my air fryer! My frozen burrito came out perfectly cooked with a toasty tortilla 🙂
