Spicy Bean Burritos

These are good for a late night snack or a quick lunch. They are very tasty and once they are made, they can be easily frozen. Just take them out of the freezer and pop them into the oven to heat up. I suppose you could heat them in the microwave too, but since we don't use a microwave, you are on your own with that one!

Flour tortillas - my homemade ones here
Refried beans - my homemade ones here
Pepper Jack cheese, shredded
Monterey jack or Cheddar cheese, shredded

This recipe is pretty versatile. You can use as much cheese as you would like. You can use more spicy cheese if you like more spice or more regular cheese if you don't like it so spicy. You can even have no cheese, just beans, like my crazy son likes his. You can customize these to your own liking.

1. Lay out a warm tortilla.

2. Spoon a large Tbsp. full of beans down the center of the tortilla.


3. Sprinkle the cheese.

4. Roll into a burrito.

5.Enjoy!

If you are making these and freezing them, wrap each one in wax paper and freeze in a container of your choice. When needed, unwrap paper, place on a oven safe pan, heat in a 400 oven for about 15 min. or until crispy and bubbly. Serve with sour cream, lettuce, tomatoes, anything you would like.
