Directions

To Cook the Sweet Potatoes:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a large bowl combine the olive oil, spices and sweet potatoes together and mix well. Emtpy onto a large rimmed baking sheet and place in the oven for about 16-20 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are completely fork tender and soft. Remove from heat and set aside.

To Make the Black Beans

  • Heat a pot over medium high eat and add oil. Once the oil is hot add the cumin seeds and let them splutter for about 30 seconds. Next add the diced serranos, stir quickly and then add the diced onions. Cook the onions until they’re transluelcent (about 4-5 minutes).
  • Add the garlic, stir until just fragrant and then add the rinsed black beans along with the taco seasoning, cumin powder, and chili powder. Stir well to comine. If the seasonings begin to stick and the pot looks dry, add 2-3 tbsp of water (just enough to get the beans to be a little wet and to scrape up any of the spices from the bottom of the pot). Cook the black beans on low heat for about 5-6 minutes.
  • Turn off the heat , add the cilantro and then use a potato masher to mash the beans slightly (you dont want them into a puree). Set aside.

Assemble the Burritos: (you can also make these into quesadillas layering in the same way as the burritos )

  • Layer a flour tortilla first with 1.5 tbsp of the chipotle sauce, then top with cheese, top with a few spoonfuls of the black bean mixture, then a few spoonfuls of the sweet potoates, and then more cheese. Roll into a burrito shape and place them flap side down until you’re ready to grill them.
  • On a flat griddle or pan heat about 1 tsp of oil over medium high heat and place the rolled burritos on the skillet. Let the bottom get golden brown and then gently flip and brown on the tops (you may have to hold them together with two spatulas so they don’t lose shape or fall apart). Once they’re golden on both sides, remove from heat.
  • Serve with extra chipotle sauce on the side and enjoy!

Vegetarian Bean & Rice Burrito

Prep: 12 mins – Cook: 12 mins – Total: 24 mins

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked rice
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 2 limes, juiced
  • 1/2 medium onion, diced
  • 3 to 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (or olive oil)
  • 1 (15-ounce) can black beans (or pinto beans), drained
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce, or to taste
  • Pinch salt, to taste, optional
  • 4 (10-inch) large tortillas

Directions

  1. In a large microwave-safe bowl, toss together cooked rice and fresh chopped cilantro, and drizzle with the lime juice. Heat in the microwave or on the stove just until hot, and give it a quick stir.
  2. In a separate large skillet, sauté the onion in vegetable oil or olive oil for 5 minutes, or until the onion is soft. Add the garlic and cook another minute.
  3. Reduce the heat to medium-low, add the black beans or pinto beans, and season with the chili powder, cumin, and hot sauce, stirring to combine. You can add a bit of salt if you’d like, but you shouldn’t need too much with all the other seasonings. Allow the beans to cook until heated through, about 5 minutes.
  4. Spoon the cilantro-lime rice and the black bean mixture onto lightly warmed flour tortillas, and add any additional toppings you want.
  5. Wrap the burritos: Fold the short ends in, then fold one long side over the filling and gently push to ensure the fold is tight before rolling up the remainder of the burrito.
  6. Cut in half, and serve immediately.
