PINTO BEANS FOR BURRITOS



Pinto Beans for Burritos image

This is my attempt to re-create the beans at my favorite burrito place, Tortillas, in Atlanta GA. Unfortunately, they closed, so now I have to try to make my own burritos, because no other establishment makes a burrito that measures up. Also, I now live in NYC, which is a burrito desert. Do not pre-soak your beans. If you do this, they will already have absorbed a bunch of water and will not be able to absorb all the flavors from the spices and broth. Do not worry about the salt added at the beginning, it is an old wives' tale that beans will be tough if you add salt at the beginning. You want to add all the spices and seasonings at the start so the beans will absorb them.

Time 3h5m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb pinto beans
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 quart chicken broth
1 quart water

Steps:

  • Sort the beans to make sure there are no small rocks, screws, etc. in them. And yes, I have personally found these things in dried beans before. Sort or hope you have good dental coverage.
  • Put the beans, all the spices, and the olive oil in a large pot. Mix well.
  • Add the chicken broth and water, and stir to mix well.
  • Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer. Cook beans, uncovered, for 3 to 4 hours until done to your liking (It usually only takes me 3 hours, and sometimes less than 3 if I have it at a fast simmer. After 2 hours, take out a bean every 30 minutes or so and eat it to check if it is done enough for you).

GRACIE'S AMAZING VEGETARIAN BURRITOS



Gracie's Amazing Vegetarian Burritos image

These are quick and easy to make, as well as incredibly tasty and filling. One of my husband's very favorite dishes, he always stuffs himself with one too many! Serve with grape tomatoes, shredded cheese, chopped lettuce, sour cream, and fresh guacamole. You can use any wrap instead of the flour tortillas, if desired.

FLORIDANATIVE'S PINTO BEAN BURRITOS



Floridanative's Pinto Bean Burritos image

From the back of the pinto bean can, these have great flavor and are easy to make for a quick week night dinner. While we like these burritos as written (though I add more green chilies), you can spice these up by adding 1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper, 2 teaspoons hot sauce, or minced ancho chilies, depending on your preference. These burritos are also good with black beans, or a mix of both black and pinto beans.

Time 30m

Yield 8 burritos, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 medium onion, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 (15 ounce) can organic pinto beans, drained and rinsed
2 tablespoons canned green chilies, chopped (I use the whole small can)
1 tablespoon dried chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 cups shredded low-fat cheese (jack, pepper jack, cheddar or a mixture)
1 cup prepared organic salsa
8 large organic whole grain soft tortillas
canola cooking spray (for casserole dish)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • In a large sauce pan over medium heat, saute onion and garlic in oil until soft.
  • Add beans, chilies and seasonings. Mix and mash the beans somewhat to the desired consistency.
  • Remove from heat; spread beans, cheese and salsa in the middle of each tortilla. (I use about 2/3 cup beans and about 1/4 cup cheese per tortilla so they roll up nicely).
  • Roll up tortillas and place in 7 x 11 or 9 x 13 ovenproof casserole dish, lightly sprayed with oil.
  • Cover with foil and bake at 350F for 15 minutes. Serve.
  • NOTE: I put additional salsa and cheese on top before baking ~ we like our burritos extra cheesy!
