To prepare this burrito, you can use a microwave or an oven. For microwave heating, remove any packaging and heat on high for a few minutes, turning halfway through, until thoroughly warmed. If using an oven, unwrap the burrito, wrap it loosely in foil, and bake at a moderate temperature until heated through. Ensure the center is hot before serving. It can be eaten as is or with your favorite toppings.
