These burritos have many benefits: They're
quick, they're healthful, and they're delicious. If you prefer, you can use fat-free
tortillas. You can also use pinto beans in place of black beans, or a mixture of the two.
Makes 10.
10 tortillas, soft-taco size
4 cups black beans or pinto beans (2 16-ounce cans)
4-ounce jar chopped green chilies
Salt and pepper
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
1 cup salsa
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat tortillas in microwave per package directions.
Using a mixer, food processor, or potato masher, mash beans, chilies, salt, and pepper to
desired consistency.
Spread 1/2 cup salsa in the bottom of a 13-inch x 9-inch baking pan. Spread 2 tablespoons
of bean mixture across a tortilla; sprinkle with cheese and salsa. Roll up tortilla,
leaving ends open, and place in baking dish, seam side down. Repeat with remaining
tortillas.
Spread remaining salsa over burritos; sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake 20 minutes,
until heated through. |
