Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 medium Yellow onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 cups Black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Chili powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Fresh lime juice
• 4 large Flour tortillas
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup Cooked brown rice
• 0.5 cup Salsa
• 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped (optional)
• 0.25 cup Sour cream (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened and translucent.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the black beans, ground cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir well to combine and cook for 3-4 minutes, allowing the beans to heat through and absorb the spices.

Step 5

Mash about half of the beans with the back of a spoon or a potato masher, leaving some whole for texture. Stir in the fresh lime juice and remove the skillet from the heat.

Step 6

Warm the flour tortillas in a microwave or on a skillet for a few seconds to make them pliable.

Step 7

Assemble the burritos: Place a tortilla on a flat surface. Spread 1/4 of the black bean mixture in the center, followed by 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, 1/4 cup of cooked brown rice, and 2 tablespoons of salsa. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro, if using.

Step 8

Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards, then roll it tightly from bottom to top to form a burrito.

Step 9

Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and fillings.

Step 10

Optional: Heat a clean skillet over medium heat and toast each burrito for 1-2 minutes per side until golden and slightly crisp.

Step 11

Serve warm with sour cream on the side, if desired.
