  • Mash the avocado and lime juice together in a small bowl with a fork until it becomes a spreadable consistency.

BEEF, BLACK BEAN AND SPANISH RICE BURRITOS



Beef, Black Bean and Spanish Rice Burritos image

This is the first original recipe I've posted on this site, I'm so excited...It's one of the few meals that I literally just throw together, but I'll try to write it down. When our family eats tacos, we usually have homemade spanish rice, homemade refried beans and tacos. Tonight I had an epiphany....why not double what I normally make and make up some burritos with the leftovers and throw them in the freezer? I usually make this recipe from scratch because they taste that good, but why not cook once and eat twice? This will make a great OAMC meals also, though I haven't tried it yet. I'll give you the ingredients for making it from scratch, and if you decide to turn it into two meals, just double everything...If you don't have the spices separately, just use a taco mix pack. We like ours without salt and really spicy, so I tamed this back a bit. If you like a runny, non-chunky salsa, you don't have to add as much water.

Time 40m

Yield 8 burritos, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 lb ground beef
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1/4 teaspoon chili pepper flakes (optional)
2 teaspoons paprika
1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional)
1 cup long grain rice
1 cup salsa
1 1/2 cups water
15 ounces black beans
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or 1 teaspoon fresh garlic
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 cup cheddar cheese or 1 cup colby-monterey jack cheese
8 flour tortillas
cooking spray
2 cups salsa (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350.
  • 2. Start on the spanish rice first, as it will take the longest. In a pot, put rice, salsa and water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium low and cover. Cook for about 17-19 minutes.
  • 3. Begin to brown ground beef in a pan, add all seasoning and cook until browned. May need to drain fat, depending on how you like your beef. Don't worry about getting your meat a little spicier than you might normally like it, because combining all these will tame down your meat and make the overall meal better.
  • 4. While the meat is browning you can start the beans. In a sauce pan, heat up the oil. I drain almost all of the liquid out of the can and put it the pan. I add the garlic powder after the beans and real garlic before.
  • 5. When all are finished cooking, I mix in a large bowl and mix in the cheese. I spray a 9x13 pan. I fill the tortillas and wrap them up like burritos and put them in the pan. I put it in the oven for about 15 minutes. We usually just add salsa on top of it.
  • 6. If you're going to freeze, put in a plastic bag and lay flat in the freezer. I would thaw them out the day you're going to cook them. You may need to cook them a little longer if they're cold out of the refrigerator.

Tips:

  • To make the burritos ahead of time, prepare the filling and rice according to the instructions. Allow both to cool completely, then store them separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When ready to assemble, heat the filling and rice in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through. Assemble the burritos and wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Store the burritos in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze them for up to 2 months.
  • To freeze the burritos, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and place them in a freezer bag. Freeze for up to 2 months. To reheat, thaw the burritos overnight in the refrigerator or at room temperature for several hours. Heat the burritos in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through.
  • For a vegetarian version of these burritos, omit the beef and add an extra can of black beans. You can also add other vegetables, such as roasted sweet potatoes, zucchini, or bell peppers.
  • To make the burritos gluten-free, use gluten-free tortillas.

Conclusion:

These black bean and brown rice burritos are a delicious and healthy meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
