Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the black beans, ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Heat the mixture over medium heat until warmed through, stirring occasionally. Use a fork or potato masher to roughly mash some of the beans for a creamier texture. Remove from heat and set aside.

  2. Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean work surface. Spoon a generous portion of the seasoned black beans onto the center of each tortilla, leaving some room around the edges. Sprinkle shredded cheese evenly over the beans.

  3. To roll the burritos, fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then fold the bottom edge over the filling and tuck it under the filling as tightly as possible. Continue rolling the burrito until it is completely closed. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

  4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the burritos seam-side down onto the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and crisp, and the cheese is melted.

  5. Remove the burritos from the skillet and slice them in half. Serve hot with your favorite toppings such as salsa, sour cream, avocado slices, or a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.
