What I do is I bake them in the pan , then cool, and individually wrap
them in oiled foil and then freeze. To reheat, pop them in the oven
(thawed or not). If you were doing this specifically as individual
burritos, they could probably be frozen pre-baking since everything is
cooked, anyway, but I'd leave the cehese off the top. I think this
would work well for the purpose you need them for! You could nuke
them, too, but I'd be inclined to thaw them in the fridge before
nuking.
