Now that we are being vegetarians for the next several weeks, I have started using this recipe again.
After we ate them I wondered why I waited until summer to make them again.
They are super good. And of course super good for you. Black beans are a super food and you should eat lots of them.
I am just sayin’….
I love this super easy recipe. Especially with lots of cheese, pico de gallo, a side of rice, and stacks of romaine lettuce.
Black Bean Burritos
2 cans black beans (or about 3 cups cooked beans)
1/4 c dehydrated onion flakes* or about 1/2 of an onion, chopped
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1 Tbl chili powder
1 tsp ground cumin
1 Tbl oil
1 can (14.5 oz) diced Mexican flavored tomatoes ( or equivalent fresh with a splash of lime juice and a few sprigs of cilantro)
1/4 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp died oregano
1/4 tsp salt
* You reconstitute the onion flakes by adding them to a 1/4 cup very hot water. Let them sit for about 5 minutes.
Combine the onion, garlic powder, chili powder, and cumin in hot oil. Stir in undrained beans, undrained tomatoes, lemon, and oregano.
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 15 minutes, uncovered.
Serve these on warm tortillas. We like to eat them on heated corn tortillas-and of course-smothered in cheese!
Super!

I am super excited to try this out! It sounds really good and I am a huge fan of black beans and can eat them right from the can! Thanks for sharing your “meatless meal” it is going to make its way to my menu, I am sure of it.
