  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried leaf oregano, crumbled
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

not really a recipe!, Member etacarina

We can all go to the store and buy a can/packet of sauce to make burritos. Instructions are on the pack and you don't need a recipe. If you include store bought ready made sauces in your list of ingredients, it's not really a recipe! People from all over the world can access this site and most of the world won't have access to the store bought cans you buy, so your recipe is solely for those who live nearby!
