Black Bean Burrito Recipes

Awesome meat-free, protein and fiber packed filling for tacos or burritos. Can also be eaten alone with a little fat free sour cream and cheese on top. Adapted from ANEWONE's lentils and rice recipe.

I love eating at Chipotle and even if I get the burrito without the tortilla all of the extras and the serving sizes of everything packs on a lot of calories. While I love the taste of their rice it is not brown rice, which I prefer to use. I also find it much cheaper to make this at home, rather than buying it. I prefer to make my own salsa rather than buying it in a jar. But of course you can substitute if you prefer. But this one tastes great! It is always a hit at cookouts and with my family. My secret ingredients to the beans are thyme and sage. They add so much flavor. I attended a vegetarian cooking class and the instructor talked about adding those two herbs to everything to give a richer and more satisfying taste. This was the first thing that I tried them in and it is delicious. This recipe is not very difficult to make nor is it time consuming. What will take the most time is the rice, which can be made ahead. I am very much an “add a little of this and that” person, so I did find it hard to pin down measurements! Fast Food Category

lpullig's black bean buritto

This is my favorite quick, easy, and healthy go to dinner!

This is another one I got online and found on several sites when looking it up for credit. Again, added here because we absolutely LOVED this. I changed the topping from lettuce and bottled salsa to home made salsa. I also added a bit of chili pepper. The original recipe also calls for whole wheat tortillas. We don't usually eat burritos properly, so I left them off. If you make proper burritos, be sure to add those to your tracking.

This recipe is here on SP Recipes as Indian Style Black Bean Burrito, but I'm sharing mine because of the changes I've made (no tortilla, homemade salsa in nutrition computation.

Half of the beans are finely chopped to give the filling a thick, creamy consistency. This dish can be made up to 8 hours in advance and chilled; just bring it back to room temperature before baking.

Amazing lunch - full of fibre and protein!

A tasty filling for a low carb wrap

Cooking for one? Easy to prepare with pantry basics in the microwave. Lots of protein. Good source of fiber, too! :) [Created 2007-06-27]

While it's tasty by just following the recipe, try adding a little salsa and sliced avocado to these burritos for something extra special.

I call these burritos my "comfort food" as they're just so tasty. The combination of sweet potato and black beans seasoned with cumin is delicious.

Also great served over brown rice or eaten alone. I did not include tortillas or anything else in this recipe for nutritional purposes, since I do not always use it the same way, or top with the same things. Anything else needs to be counted seperately.

Very tasty and healthy burritos
