Time 27m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon canola oil
1 lb ground turkey breast
1 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup finely chopped red pepper
1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
1/4 cup barbecue sauce
4 teaspoons fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 whole wheat flour tortillas (12-inch-inch)
1 cup mixed greens
2 ounces low fat cheddar cheese, shredded (1/2 cup)
hot sauce (optional)

Steps:

  • In 12-inch skillet, heat oil on medium until hot. Add turkey and cook 7 minutes or until browned, stirring occasionally and breaking up meat.
  • Add beans, pepper, onion, barbecue sauce, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, and salt; cook mixture 5-7 minutes or until turkey is cooked through.
  • To serve, place 1 tortilla on each of 4 serving plates. Divide turkey mixture evenly among tortillas; top with greens and cheese. Fold sides of tortillas over filling and roll tightly. Serve with hot sauce, if you like.

Tips:

  • Soak the beans overnight or for at least 4 hours before cooking. This will help to reduce the cooking time and make the beans more digestible.
  • Use a variety of beans in your burritos. This will add flavor and texture to the dish.
  • Season the beans well with chili powder, cumin, and salt. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Cook the beans until they are tender but still hold their shape.
  • Use fresh, flavorful ingredients in your burritos. This includes the tortillas, the fillings, and the toppings.
  • Warm the tortillas before filling them. This will make them more pliable and less likely to tear.
  • Fill the tortillas with a variety of fillings, such as beans, rice, vegetables, and meat. You can also add cheese, salsa, and sour cream.
  • Top the burritos with your favorite toppings, such as guacamole, salsa, sour cream, and cilantro.
  • Serve the burritos immediately, or wrap them in foil and store them in the refrigerator for later.
