Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 (15 oz) can refried beans
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- Salt to taste
- 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese
- Optional toppings: salsa, sour cream, guacamole, chopped cilantro
Instructions
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
- Stir in refried beans, chili powder, cumin, and salt. Cook until heated through, about 3 minutes.
- Warm tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.
- Spread about 1/4 cup of bean mixture down the center of each tortilla. Top with 1/4 cup cheese.
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll tightly from the bottom to form a burrito.
- Place burritos seam-side down in a skillet over medium heat. Cook until golden brown on each side, about 2 minutes per side. Serve with desired toppings.
Tips
- For extra flavor, add cooked rice or sautéed bell peppers to the filling.
- To make ahead, assemble burritos and refrigerate; reheat in a skillet or oven.
- Store leftover burritos wrapped in foil in the fridge for up to 3 days.
