Like I've said before, we love black beans. When I cook beans, I usually make a big pot and use them for a couple meals. This way I only have to sort and soak once a week. We had some leftover dutch oven chicken that needed to be used up so I decided to make some yummy burritos. Not really much of a recipe for the burritos. Super easy and a good way to use up any leftover chicken you have or you can cook some chicken just for this.
Directions: Heat 1 T oil and cook 2 or 3 cloves of chopped garlic and a teaspoon of cumin. When the garlic is cooked add 2 cups of beans and cook until hot. Mash your beans, but leave some whole. Layer down the center of your tortilla: cheese, shredded chicken, beans, salsa and sour cream. Fold in two side or tortilla, roll up and fry in a little bit of canola oil. Serve with additional salsa, sour cream and shredded lettuce.
Oh Yum! I have been so into Mexican food lately! Your dish looks fantastic, bring on the burritos!
ReplyDeleteThis is the kind of stuff that we go nuts for. It's perfect for every day real food and it's so insanely delicious.
