Bean Burrito Recipe

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 20 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can (16 oz) refried beans
  • 1 tbsp taco seasoning
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup diced white onion
  • 1/2 cup hot sauce

Method
 

  1. Combine the refried beans, taco seasoning, and water in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir and warm for 4 to 5 minutes until smooth and steaming.
  2. Warm each flour tortilla in a dry skillet over medium heat for 20 to 30 seconds per side until pliable and lightly spotted. Keep them stacked under a kitchen towel.
  3. Lay a tortilla flat and spread 1/4 of the bean mixture down the center. Top with 1/4 cup shredded cheddar, 1 tbsp diced onion, and a drizzle of hot sauce.
  4. Fold the short sides inward and roll from the bottom up to close the burrito. Repeat with the remaining 3 tortillas.
  5. Place burritos seam-side down on a plate, add a dollop of sour cream and a drizzle of hot sauce to each, then slice in half on the diagonal to serve.

Notes

The bean seasoning is the one step worth slowing down on. Taste before you fill and add a pinch of salt if the seasoning you used is on the bland side. These burritos reheat well the next day, but store the sour cream separately and add it fresh when you serve.
