Categories     main-dish

Time 15m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup cooked brown rice
1 tablespoon shredded Cheddar

1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
1 whole wheat 8-inch tortilla
2 tablespoons no-salt-added canned black beans
2 tablespoons thinly sliced or shredded carrots
1 tablespoon mild jarred salsa

Steps:

  • If the cooked rice is cold, reheat it in the microwave. When hot, mix in the Cheddar until the cheese melts. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
  • Mash the avocado and lime juice together in a small bowl with a fork until it becomes a spreadable consistency.
  • Lay the tortilla out on a cutting board. Spread the mashed avocado on the tortilla, leaving a 1-inch outer border without any avocado. In the bottom third of the tortilla, lay out in a log shape the rice, beans, carrots and salsa. Roll over once tightly, then tuck in the sides and continue rolling. The avocado should help the burrito stay together. Cut in half. Wrap in a paper towel, followed by a layer of aluminum foil. Serve at room temperature.

CHICKEN, RICE, AND BEAN BURRITOS



Chicken, Rice, and Bean Burritos image

This is a recipe I found on a cooking blog, The Sister's Dish. These burritos are so easy to make! Once I made them, we LOVED them, and it's a keeper in our house. I have used Pace medium picante sauce in them, and I have also used Mexican-style Rotel (drained), and they were both good. For the rice, I usually make the Quick Spanish Rice recipe on here (#17126), use a cup for the burritos, and then I just serve the rest as a side dish. Hope you like them!

BEAN AND CHEESE BURRITOS



Bean and Cheese Burritos image

Mexican refried beans are a cinch to make at home on a weeknight thanks to some staple pantry items and a few basic fresh ingredients. Buttery canned pinto beans are perfect in this dish, breaking down into a creamy, silky mixture. (Black beans would also work great.) While the beans are often fried in lard or bacon drippings, this vegetarian version builds flavor with caramelized onion, bell pepper, garlic and smoked paprika instead. Pico de gallo adds a touch of tang to counter the rich beans. Pan-frying the wrapped burritos guarantees a golden, irresistibly crispy exterior and an interior that oozes with melted cheese.

Categories     weeknight, burritos and nachos, main course

Time 40m

Yield 6 burritos

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup safflower or canola oil
1/2 cup finely chopped yellow onion (from 1/2 medium onion)
1/2 cup finely chopped green bell pepper (from 1/2 pepper)
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 (15-ounce) cans pinto beans, 1/2 cup of bean liquid reserved and the rest drained
1/2 cup store-bought or homemade pico de gallo or salsa
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
6 (9- to 10-inch) flour tortillas
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded sharp Cheddar
Sour cream and hot sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium. Add onion and bell pepper, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until light golden and tender, about 8 minutes. Stir in garlic until fragrant, 1 minute. Add pinto beans, pico de gallo, smoked paprika, reserved bean liquid and 1/2 cup of water, and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring and mashing occasionally with a potato masher or the back of a spoon, until liquid is absorbed and mixture is thick, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer refried beans to a bowl, and wipe out skillet.
  • Spread 1/2 cup of the refried beans in the center of each tortilla and top each with 1/3 cup of the cheese. Fold the short sides of the tortilla over the filling; fold the bottom of the tortilla up and over the filling and tightly roll.
  • In the skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium. Add 3 burritos seam side down and cook until golden, turning occasionally, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to serving plates and repeat with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and 3 burritos. Serve warm with sour cream and hot sauce on the side.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beans: For a classic burrito filling, use pinto beans or black beans. If you prefer a milder flavor, try using white beans or cannellini beans.
  • Cook the beans properly: Rinse the beans well before cooking. To cook the beans, cover them with water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 1-2 hours, or until the beans are tender.
  • Make flavorful rice: To make flavorful rice, use a combination of long-grain and short-grain rice. Add some chopped onion, garlic, and cilantro to the rice while it is cooking for extra flavor.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Whenever possible, use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. This includes fresh vegetables, herbs, and cheese.
  • Don't overfill the burritos: When assembling the burritos, don't overfill them. This will make them difficult to roll and eat.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Serve the burritos with your favorite toppings, such as salsa, sour cream, guacamole, or cheese.

Conclusion:

Bean and rice burritos are a delicious and versatile meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover beans and rice. With a little planning and preparation, you can make delicious and satisfying bean and rice burritos at home. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give one of these recipes a try!
