Quick & Easy Beef & Squash Burrito!

This delicious burrito came together really quickly in one pan for a super delicious lunch that gave me leftovers for the next few days! I love adding volume to my taco meat by mixing in any cooked vegetables that I have leftover in my fridge. I had cooked squash, but you can use anything you have! (I often have leftover cooked squash because it adds volume to so many things without adding too many calories!)

Add all of the seasonings to taste (be generous!), some cheese for added protein, some sour cream for creaminess, and some hot sauce for a kick! I love wrapping the whole thing in a low carb tortilla for even more protein and added fiber!
