Categories     Burrito

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 17

1½ cups finely chopped onion
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 to 4 tablespoons neutral oil such as olive, grapeseed or canola
4 cups grated peeled sweet potato
1 tsp chili powder
1 to 2 teaspoons ground cumin
generous pinch of cayenne
salt and ground black pepper to taste
a cup or more of finely minced cilantro
fresh lime juice to taste
6 burrito-sized tortillas, homemade are fun
sweet potato filling
1.5 cups cooked black beans, see notes above
Boston lettuce or other
grated Cheddar or Monterey Jack to taste
sour cream to taste
fresh lime to taste

Steps:

  • In a large sauté pan set over medium heat, sauté the onions and garlic in 3 tablespoons of the oil until the onions are translucent. Add the grated sweet potatoes, chili powder, cumin and cayenne and cook, covered - covering is important to prevent sticking - for about 8-10 minutes, stirring every few minutes to ensure it's not sticking or burning. When the sweet potato is tender, add salt and pepper to taste and remove the filling from the heat. Stir in the cilantro. Squeeze 1/2 a lime over the sweet potatoes, mix, taste, and adjust with more lime and salt to taste until it tastes nicely seasoned.
  • Gather all of your ingredients. I like to warm up my beans in a small skillet, and if my sweet potato filling has been refrigerated, I like to warm that up, too. I also like to quickly warm up my tortillas (30 seconds) in a large, dry skillet.
  • Place a tortilla on a plate. Top with lettuce. Top with beans, then cheese, sweet potato filling, sour cream, and a big squeeze of lime. Roll into a burrito. Halve and serve. (Obviously: layer the fillings as you wish.) Repeat with remaining tortillas and ingredients.

Time 40m

Yield 10 burritos

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
Olive oil, for drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 Spanish onion, finely diced
1 jalapeno, seeded and finely chopped
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/2 teaspoon dried Mexican oregano
2 cups packed fresh baby spinach
One 15-ounce can black beans, drained
One 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes
1 cup crumbled queso fresco
Juice of 1 lime
Ten 10-inch whole-wheat tortillas
1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
Hot sauce, as desired

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Add the sweet potatoes to a baking sheet in an even layer. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast until the potatoes are just tender but still have a bite, 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside.
  • Add 2 tablespoons olive oil to a large saute pan and place over medium heat. Add the garlic and onion and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Then, add the jalapeno and stir to combine. Add the chili powder, tomato paste and oregano. Stir to combine and cook for an additional 2 minutes to release the flavors of the herbs. Then, add the spinach, beans and tomatoes. Fold gently to combine. Simmer until the spinach is wilted and the liquid has reduced by half, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the queso fresco, lime juice and sweet potatoes. Taste and season as needed.
  • Distribute the mixture evenly among the tortillas. Roll the tortillas, garnish with the cilantro and hot sauce and serve immediately. For freezer meal prep, wrap tightly in plastic wrap or parchment paper and store in an airtight container or bag. Freeze for up to 3 months.
  • To reheat, place wrapped burrito in the microwave and reheat for 3 minutes, flipping once. Unwrap, garnish with the cilantro and hot sauce, if desired, and serve!

SIMPLEST SLOW COOKER BLACK BEANS



Simplest Slow Cooker Black Beans image

Notes: Don't be afraid to make these ahead of time, as they continue to develop more flavor as the beans sit in their cooking liquid. Olive oil is something I always add to my slow-cooker cooked beans (see here). I think it adds flavor, especially once the beans finish cooking and are cooling in the flavorful cooking liquid. Feel free to omit if you wish. Pepper flakes: if you like a little bit of spice, add the the chili flakes; if you don't, omit or use less. 1 teaspoon will not make for especially spicy beans, but there will be a nice kick. To make these in the Instant Pot, into the Instant Pot add all of the ingredients listed below along with 6 cups of water. Start with 2 teaspoons kosher salt. Turn the valve to sealing. Set the IP to Manual, High Pressure, 30 minutes. Let it release naturally for at least 20 minutes. Uncover. Taste. Add more salt (I often add 1 to 2 more teaspoons of salt) to taste.

Categories     Beans

Time 8h5m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb. dried black beans, no need to soak
1 half of a small onion, halved through the core to keep it intact, peeled
1 bay leaf
1 garlic clove, smashed and halved
2 to 4 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, optional
1/4 cup olive oil, optional

Steps:

  • Place the beans, onion half, bay leaf, garlic, 2 teaspoons kosher salt, pepper flakes (if using), and olive oil (if using) into a slow cooker. Cover with 8 cups of water. Cover pot. Cook on high heat for 6 to 8 hours or until the beans are done, but start checking at the 4-hour mark - all slow cookers are different and times might vary, too, depending on the age of your beans.
  • Taste. Add more salt to taste. I add 2 more teaspoons, but start with 1 or a 1/2 teaspoon and adjust from there. Note: When you first taste a bean, do not expect to be wowed. The beans develop more flavor as they cool in their cooking liquid, which will continue to season them. As noted above, I find they taste even better on day 2.
  • Store the beans in their cooking liquid. I love these deli quart containers for this purpose. I freeze the beans in their cooking liquid in these quart containers as well.

SLOW COOKER BLACK BEAN BURRITOS

Slow Cooker Black Bean Burritos are easy and spicy with lots of texture.

Provided by Ginny McMeans

Categories     Main Course

Time 8h15m

Number Of Ingredients 11

28 ounces tomatoes ( - or 2 cans diced tomatoes, 14 1.2 ounces each)
1/4 cup salsa ( - your favorite)
2 tablespoons Taco Seasoning ( - you can use my homemade version, link in the post)
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon sea salt
28 ounces canned black beans ( - 2 cans black beans, 14-15 ounces each, drained and rinsed)
2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, finely chopped
1 cup brown rice ( - uncooked)
1/2 cup whole kernel corn ( - canned, drained and rinsed, or i ear fresh ear or frozen)
2 cups vegetable broth
10 whole wheat tortillas

Steps:

  • In your slow cooker add the tomatoes, salsa, beans, rice, corn, seasonings, chipotle in adobo sauce and broth. Stir and cover.
  • Cook on low 6-8 hours or on high 3-4 hours. The rice will be tender and most of the liquid will be absorbed.
  • Lay out your tortillas and place about 1/3 to 1/2 cup on each tortilla. 1/2 Cup is for a very large burrito.
  • Spread down through the center.
  • On these burritos, I folded each end just about 1 1/2" over the point edge of the beans. Then I rolled up the tortilla along the long edge. If you have a certain technique that you want to use on these - go right ahead.

SLOW COOKER SPICY BLACK BEAN AND SWEET POTATO CHILI



Slow Cooker Spicy Black Bean and Sweet Potato Chili image

This nourishing, smoky vegan chili is perfect for cold weeknights. Mix everything in the slow cooker before the chaos of the day begins, then just toss in some frozen corn a few minutes before you're ready to eat. As with any chili, toppings go far. Feel free to throw on what you have and what sounds good, like tortilla chips, cilantro or vegan cheese. The recipe calls for either coconut oil or vegetable oil. If you'd like a mild coconut flavor - which plays well with the orange juice in the chili - choose unrefined or virgin coconut oil. For a neutral flavor, choose refined coconut oil or any vegetable oil. Use one chipotle chile for a very mild chili, and four if you like yours very spicy. (Get the stovetop version of this recipe here.)

BLACK BEAN SWEET POTATO BURRITOS



Black Bean Sweet Potato Burritos image

I made these before a busy week and discovered that they are a covenient, healthy and savory quick meal that's great for travel or a short lunch. I'm not a vegan, but I use vegan cheese because it's much quicker to grate, tastes good and melts instantly. Baking the burritos allows the tortillas to create a crispy seal around the contents so nothing falls out.

From "Best Recipes All New Slow Cooker", this flavorful and economical recipe is very quick to throw in the crock pot. It is great wrapped in tortillas or served on top of rice (My kids enjoy it both ways!). I double the recipe but not the spices. Note: 11/8/06 I added about 3 tbs.
