- Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for about 10-15 seconds to make them pliable and easier to roll.
Assembly

- Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then fold the bottom up and roll tightly to form a burrito.
Baking
- Place the assembled burritos in a baking dish and sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese on top.
- Bake in the oven for 5-10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serving
- Remove the burritos from the oven and garnish with diced tomatoes, chopped green onions, and cilantro if desired. Serve hot with extra sour cream and chipotle sauce on the side.
