Grilled Veggie Burritos with Corn Salsa

With the weather getting better we have loved starting to bust out the grill again. We, being K. I love grilled food, but honestly don’t know how to use one, which we’ll be remedying this summer. We had these grilled veggie burritos with corn salsa, and they are so tasty. It’s refreshing to delve more into having meatless meals, and it’s something we try to do about once a week. There have been some huge wins, like these burritos, as well as some awful, awful fails, which makes this win even sweeter.
