FAQs

What toppings go well with burritos?

Literally, anything that you’re wanting. I love to add a bit of hot sauce to the outside of the crispy tortilla and I really make sure to cover the outside of the burrito with sour cream and chives as well.
Don’t forget to top with a bit of lime juice as well!

What side dishes pair with air fryer chimichangas or burritos?

A side of refried beans would be great with all kinds of burritos. I also think shredded lettuce and even some melted cheese are always a good choice. You can easily choose a side dish of your choice that you love as well.
