frozen burrito

Icy stuffed tortilla

A frozen burrito is a pre-made burrito sold frozen, typically containing beans, rice, cheese, and sometimes meat wrapped in a flour tortilla.

A convenience food staple, it's heated in a microwave or oven for a quick meal: I grabbed a frozen burrito for lunch.

The term sometimes evokes low-effort eating or bachelor-style cooking.
