1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
⅓ cup Fatfree refried black beans or reconsituted Fantastic Brand dry black bean flakes

1 tablespoon Salsa; optional
1 8-inch fatfree flour or whole wheat tortilla (I use Cedarlane Brand WW tortillas)

Directions

Date: Sat, 10 Feb 1996 13:15:26 -0600 (CST) From: "Natalie Frankel" <Natalie.Frankel@...> This recipe is the result of my efforts to duplicate the yummy black bean burritos served at my favorite local natural food restaurant, Beans and Barley.

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Soften the tortilla by placing it in the heated pan for 30 seconds. Spread the beans on the tortilla in a strip about 2" wide and to within 1" of the other two edges. Top with a strip of cheese, the onion and salsa. Fold the left and right edges over to make it into a burrito shape. Place seam side down in the skillet. (Do not use Pam.)

"Fry" for 3 minutes until the bottom is brown in the middle (actually the only part touching the pan, since the tortilla curls up a bit). Turn carefully with a spatula and cook on the other side for 3-5 minutes more until it is nice and browned on the bottom. Serve with additional salsa, if desired.

If you use a can of beans, you would get 4 servings. This travels real well to work or school wrapped in wax paper or a wax paper bag and can be eaten cold, at room temperature, or heated for 30 seconds in the microwave.

Do not nuke too long or covered in plastic wrap or it will become too soft or tough.
