Black Bean Burritos
Now this is a family favorite. Not only is it delicious, but it comes together quickly in 30 mins or less. It’s full of flavorful black beans, fresh tomatoes, lettuce, cheese, avocado (if you like them), and ketchup or my personal favorite homemade salsa. All rolled up in your favorite tortilla.
This is a simple yet delicious meal, and one that my kids very much approve of.
What you’ll need for this recipe:
Instructions: Bean Spread
- Open and drain your can of black beans

- Heat your non-stick skillet or pan
- Place tortilla on skillet or pan and cook until golden on one side.
- Flip tortilla and cook until golden.
