Memorial Day

ARLINGTON, VA – MAY 24: Members of the 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment place American flags at the graves of U.S. soldiers buried in Section 60 at Arlington National Cemetery in preparation for Memorial Day May 24, 2012 in Arlington, Virginia. ‘Flags-In’ has become an annual ceremony since the 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment (The Old Guard) was designated to be an Army’s official ceremonial unit in 1948. Every available soldier in the 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment participates in these events. (Photo by Win McNamee/Getty Images)

If your idea of a burrito just involves beans, salsa, meat, and cheese wrapped up in a flour tortilla, then you're doing it wrong. Some of the best burritos this country has to offer feature a lot more than that! Some are traditional-classic can be incredible when done correctly. But others feature ingredients that take it up a notch like fried avocado, fries, and tater tots. Yes, tater tots. And don't forget the sauce!
