Chipotle Bean Burritos

O.....M.....G.....



This is probably in my top 3 of recipes I just stumbled across on the internet. No joke. Not only is it delicious, but is also makes enough for me to take to work for leftovers the next day. Also, it hardly takes any time at all to prep! My 19 month old even kept saying "Bite! Bite! Bite!" wanting to take bites of it. (Although I am not sure I would recommend this for children since it has a little kick to it. We just fed him some of the beans)

Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon canola or vegetable oil
  • 1 clove garlic; minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1 (15 oz) can black beans; drained and rinsed
  • 1 (15 oz) can kidney beans; drained and rinsed
  • 3 tablespoons refrigerated salsa
  • Flour tortillas
  • 1 cup pre-shredded Mexican blend cheese
  • Any Other toppings you would like. Here is what I used:



Directions:

  • Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and cook 1 minute stirring frequently


  • Stir in the chili powder and salt. Cook for 30 seconds stirring constantly


  • Stir in 1/3 cup water and beans. Bring to a boil and reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes.




  • Remove from heat and stir in salsa.



  • Partially mash the bean mixture with a slotted spoon.


  • Warm tortillas in a microwave. Spoon about 1/3 cup of the bean mixture into the center of each tortilla. Top each with cheese, lettuce, sour cream, green onions, ect... Roll up!
