"There's nothing like a freshly made burrito from your favorite Tex-Mex restaurant (or even your own kitchen, if you're following the right bean burrito recipe). But sometimes, you might crave the format of a burrito but not want to spend the money to buy one or the time to make one at home. That's when frozen burritos can come in handy."
"Sausage, egg, and cheese is a classic breakfast burrito combo, so I wasn't surprised to see this variety in the El Monterey lineup. Unfortunately, though, it was far from my favorite of the bunch. It's not bad, per se, but it really doesn't taste like you're getting much sausage at all. Sure, there are small pieces of sausage sprinkled throughout, but they're not widespread enough to really compete with the flavors of egg and cheese."
El Monterey produces a selection of frozen burritos sold in grocery store freezers that provide a quick, convenient option when fresh burritos are unavailable. The offerings vary in flavor and texture and are ranked here from worst to best based on overall taste and mouthfeel. The Egg, Sausage, and Cheese burrito delivers a soft, slightly stretchy tortilla but features sparse, small sausage pieces and mushy fillings that fail to balance egg and cheese, making it bland and forgettable. Frozen burritos can satisfy cravings but generally fall short of fresh restaurant or homemade burritos.
