Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup onion, diced
- 1.5 cups black beans, drained
- 1.5 cups corn, drained
- 1.5 cups spinach, packed (approximately 2-3 oz)
- 1.25 cups finely shredded cheese (cheddar, pepper jack, monterey jack, or a mix)
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.125 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 large flour tortillas
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a sauté pan over medium heat. Add garlic and onion, sauté for 1-2 minutes.
- Chop the spinach and add it to the pan, sauté for another 1-2 minutes.
- Add black beans and corn, stir and sauté for an additional 5-6 minutes.
- Reduce heat to medium-low, add paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Mix well. Top with cheese, stir to combine and melt the cheese.
- Place flour tortillas on a plate. Dampen a paper towel and place one on top of each tortilla. Microwave for 20 seconds to steam and soften the tortillas.
- Place one tortilla on another plate or cutting board. Add two to three large scoops of filling to the center of the tortilla.
- Wrap the burrito by folding in each side of the tortilla over the filling towards the center. With sides folded, bring the bottom of the tortilla up over the filling and tuck it under. Ensure the sides stay folded in. Gently roll the rest of the burrito, keeping the folded sides on top of the remaining shell down and tightly wrap the rest of the burrito.
