Ingredients

– 1 can (15 oz) black beans, rinsed and drained

Instructions

Creating Black Bean and Guacamole Burritos is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Guacamole: In a bowl, mash the ripe avocado. Add lime juice, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and set aside.
2. Heat the Beans: In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the black beans for about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
3. Warm the Tortillas: In a separate skillet, warm the tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.
4. Assemble the Burritos: On each tortilla, layer the following ingredients:
– A generous spoonful of black beans.
– A dollop of guacamole.
– A handful of shredded lettuce.
– Diced tomatoes and corn.
– A sprinkle of cheese.
5. Fold the Burritos: Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll from the bottom up to enclose the filling tightly.
6. Toast the Burritos (optional): For added texture, you can place the assembled burritos seam-side down in the skillet for 1-2 minutes to crisp the outside.
7. Serve: Slice the burritos in half and serve with your favorite toppings, such as salsa, sour cream, or fresh cilantro.

These steps will guide you in creating these incredible burritos effortlessly.
