Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large heavy saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the cauliflower and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the oregano. Turn the heat off and reserve. Heat a large heavy griddle. Working in batches, heat the tortillas one at a time until they are soft and pliable, about 1 minute per side. Add 2 tablespoons of warm Chorizo Refried Beans to the center of the tortilla, spreading outward to the sides. Add 1 tablespoon of the sauteed cauliflower mixture. Add 1 tablespoon of cheese. Fold in the edges and roll to form a burrito. Return to the griddle just for the cheese to melt, about 10 seconds. Serve warm.
- Heat a medium saute pan on medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook until golden in color, about 6 minutes. Remove the chorizo to a drain on a plate lined with some paper towels. Add the onions to the pan with the chorizo fat. Saute until the onions are translucent, about 4 minutes. Return the chorizo to the pan. Add the refried beans to the mixture. Continue cooking for about 5 minutes. Turn the heat off and reserve for tostadas and burritos.
FLORIDANATIVE'S PINTO BEAN BURRITOS
From the back of the pinto bean can, these have great flavor and are easy to make for a quick week night dinner. While we like these burritos as written (though I add more green chilies), you can spice these up by adding 1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper, 2 teaspoons hot sauce, or minced ancho chilies, depending on your preference. These burritos are also good with black beans, or a mix of both black and pinto beans.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a large sauce pan over medium heat, saute onion and garlic in oil until soft.
- Add beans, chilies and seasonings. Mix and mash the beans somewhat to the desired consistency.
- Remove from heat; spread beans, cheese and salsa in the middle of each tortilla. (I use about 2/3 cup beans and about 1/4 cup cheese per tortilla so they roll up nicely).
- Roll up tortillas and place in 7 x 11 or 9 x 13 ovenproof casserole dish, lightly sprayed with oil.
- Cover with foil and bake at 350F for 15 minutes. Serve.
- NOTE: I put additional salsa and cheese on top before baking ~ we like our burritos extra cheesy!

BEAN AND CHEESE BURRITOS
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.

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.

PINTO BEANS FOR BURRITOS
This is my attempt to re-create the beans at my favorite burrito place, Tortillas, in Atlanta GA. Unfortunately, they closed, so now I have to try to make my own burritos, because no other establishment makes a burrito that measures up. Also, I now live in NYC, which is a burrito desert. Do not pre-soak your beans. If you do this, they will already have absorbed a bunch of water and will not be able to absorb all the flavors from the spices and broth. Do not worry about the salt added at the beginning, it is an old wives' tale that beans will be tough if you add salt at the beginning. You want to add all the spices and seasonings at the start so the beans will absorb them.

Steps:
- Sort the beans to make sure there are no small rocks, screws, etc. in them. And yes, I have personally found these things in dried beans before. Sort or hope you have good dental coverage.
- Put the beans, all the spices, and the olive oil in a large pot. Mix well.
- Add the chicken broth and water, and stir to mix well.
- Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer. Cook beans, uncovered, for 3 to 4 hours until done to your liking (It usually only takes me 3 hours, and sometimes less than 3 if I have it at a fast simmer. After 2 hours, take out a bean every 30 minutes or so and eat it to check if it is done enough for you).
Tips:
- Soak the pinto beans overnight or for at least 6 hours before cooking. This will help to reduce the cooking time and make the beans more digestible.
- If you don't have time to soak the beans overnight, you can quick-soak them by bringing them to a boil in a large pot of water. Remove from heat, cover, and let stand for 1 hour. Drain and rinse the beans before cooking.
- When cooking the beans, be sure to add plenty of water. The beans should be covered by at least 2 inches of water.
- Once the beans are cooked, drain them and rinse them with cold water. This will help to remove any excess salt and starch.
- To make the burrito filling, mash the beans with a fork or potato masher. You can also use a food processor to purée the beans until they are smooth.
- Season the bean filling with your favorite spices. Some good options include chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and onion powder.
- To assemble the burritos, place a large tortilla on a flat surface. Spread some of the bean filling in the center of the tortilla. Top with your favorite toppings, such as cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.
- Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling and roll it up tightly. Serve immediately or wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for later.
Conclusion:
The Florida Native's Pinto Bean Burritos are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. The pinto beans are packed with protein and fiber, and the flavorful spices make them irresistible. These burritos can be customized to your liking, so you can add or remove toppings as desired.
