Bean Burritos

FAST

INGREDIENTS

1 (15 ounce) can black beans
1 cup salsa
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon chili powder
8 (10 inch) flour tortillas
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

DIRECTIONS

1.Rinse beans in cold water, drain well.
2.Combine beans, salsa, cumin and chili powder in large pan. Cook over medium-high heat for about ten minutes, mashing beans slightly with back of wooden spoon. Stir occasionally, adding a little water if mixture looks too dry.
3.Spoon bean mixture into tortillas. Top with cheese. Fold each tortilla into an envelope shape, ensuring both ends are tucked in. Eat warm or wrap in plastic to take for lunch.

This is a healthy alternative to having meat. The beans have lots of protein and fiber, which keeps you full for longer. Sometimes I also cook up some red onions just before adding the black beans for a flavor enhancer.
