Here’s a simple recipe for making delicious vegetable burritos at home:
Vegetable Burritos
Ingredients:
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 2 cups cooked and mashed black beans
- 1 cup cooked and chopped vegetables (such as bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, and zucchini)
- 1 cup grated cheese (such as cheddar or Monterey Jack)
- 1 cup salsa or diced tomatoes
- 1 cup chopped lettuce
- Optional: chopped fresh cilantro, diced avocado, diced red onion, sour cream
“Try adding some diced chicken or steak for a protein boost, or switch up the cheese and salsa for a different flavor.”
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F.
-
Spread a layer of black beans on the center of each tortilla, leaving about an inch around the edges.
-
Top the beans with a layer of cooked and chopped vegetables.
-
Sprinkle grated cheese over the vegetables.
-
Add a layer of salsa or diced tomatoes on top of the cheese.
-
Place the tortillas on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the tortillas are heated through.
Remove the burritos from the oven and top with chopped lettuce and any additional toppings you like, such as fresh cilantro, diced avocado, diced red onion, or sour cream.
-
Roll the burritos tightly, wrapping them in foil or plastic wrap if you like. Serve immediately, or store in the refrigerator or freezer for later.
