Fruity Breakfast Burritos

This recipe is slightly adapted from http://onceamonthmom.com/fruity-breakfast-burritos/

Ingredients:

* 10 small flour tortillas

* 1.25 cups vanilla (or fruit flavored) yogurt

* 16 oz frozen berries (could use fresh, I used blackberries, blueberries, & raspberries)

* .5 cups sugar

* 1 Tbsp cinnamon

* Spray butter

Directions

* In a small bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon well. Set aside.

* Spray one side of the tortillas with butter then lay the tortilla (butter side down) in the sugar mixture to coat

* Lay the tortilla sugar side down on a plate

* Spread about a tablespoon or a little more of yogurt on the tortilla a little left of center

* Spread fruit across the yogurt

* Roll tortilla and lay on cookie sheet

* Flash freeze on cookie sheet for about 15 minutes

* Transfer frozen rolls to a bag for storage

Eat frozen or let them thaw for a few minutes. They will get soggy if you let them thaw for too long. This is a yummy treat for breakfast, or like we're doing this week... a yummy, cool treat to eat on the beach!
