Burrito

Burritos are safe and satisfying while breastfeeding! Packed with protein, beans, rice, and vegetables, they're actually a nutritionally solid meal for hungry nursing moms.

A burrito typically contains rice, beans, meat or tofu, cheese, sour cream, salsa, and guacamole in a flour tortilla. All standard burrito ingredients are breastfeeding-safe. They're calorie-dense, which is helpful when you're burning extra calories nursing. The spicy salsa or jalapeños won't affect your baby through milk.
