We all loved this! I was so surprised when even my 10 year old wanted seconds! ...I accidentally bought frozen carrot slices instead of the mixed veggies, so I took a knife and sliced the slices into strips, and who would have thought carrots would have been so good in a burrito! We absolutely loved these. Thank you so much for such a healthy and delicious recipe!
