Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks.
-
Add the diced onion and red bell pepper to the skillet with the beef. Cook for about 5 minutes, until the vegetables are softened.
-
Stir in the black beans, corn, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Let the mixture simmer for another 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
-
Place a flour tortilla on a clean surface. Spoon a generous portion of the beef and vegetable mixture onto the center of the tortilla.
-
Sprinkle some shredded cheddar cheese on top of the beef mixture.
-
Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then fold the bottom edge up and roll it into a tight packet.
-
Place the burrito packet seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and filling.
-
Lightly brush the tops of the burrito packets with olive oil for a golden finish.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the tortillas are crispy and the cheese is melted.
-
Serve the baked burrito packets hot with salsa, sour cream, and avocado slices on the side for dipping and topping.
