INGREDIENTS
 

  • 4–5 large flour tortillas
  • 1 15 oz can /425 grams black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 zucchini, chopped
  • 1/3 large red onion, diced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce, optional
  • To serve: avocado, salsa, sour cream

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat for 1 minute. Add the olive oil, then the zucchini, bell pepper, and red onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 7 to 8 minutes.
  • Add the black beans, hot sauce (if using), chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika. Stir to combine and cook until heated through, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes.
  • Lay a tortilla flat on a work surface. Sprinkle with cheese, then spoon about 1/3 cup of the filling onto the center. Fold in the sides, then roll tightly from the bottom to enclose.
  • To freeze, wrap each burrito individually in parchment paper or foil. Store in a freezer-safe container or zip-top bag for up to 2 months.
  • For a crisp exterior, grill the burritos seam-side down in a clean skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes per side before cooling and wrapping for storage.
  • To reheat, microwave unwrapped on a plate for 1 minute per side, or defrost overnight and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10 to 15 minutes. Bake frozen burritos unwrapped at 350°F (175°C) for 20 to 25 minutes, turning halfway through.
