Another way you can make this: preheat oven to 350. Spray large rectangle casserole baking pan with Pam. In each burrito, put 1/2 cup filling THEN top with shredded cheese. When casserole is filled mix 1 can of cheddar cheese soup and 1/2 cup of salsa( I used mild) together and pour over rolled burritos. Top with another layer of shredded cheese. Just bake until cheese is melted. Serve with sour cream and additional salsa if desired. DELICIOUS!!!
