Los Primos Bean And Cheese Burrito Recipes

4 Point Plus (1 serving)

This is a recipe my co-work makes that we've gotten down to low fat.

These are FULL of FLAVOR if this doesnt jump start your metabolism nothing will. I like to make these in advance and freeze them for a quick meal on the go.

a chicken enchilada with spinach and tomatoes and a sour cream enchilada sauce

Fast, filling and super easy to do. These burritos make a supper spring to life in a matter of minutes. Pair this with Spanish rice, beans, lettuce, chopped tomatoes, salsa, light sour cream and (if you can spare the calories) some homemade guacamole and you have a meal that even a Los Dos Amigos would be proud of! (I use smaller tortillas than what is in this recipe to cut down on calories. It doesn't ruin the taste and it is still filling!)

Pretty much the easiest taco filling ever. A much healthier substitute for the meat in a standard taco.

A fresh take on a Mexican favorite. From Party Like a Culinista: Fresh Recipes, Bold Flavors, and Good Friends

An amazingly simple yet very flavorful shredded pork dish. Use this as an entree by itself or as a filling for tacos, burritos. Also makes a great addition to nachos and quesadillas.

Un plato de cerdo desmenuzado increíblemente simple pero muy sabrosa. Use esto como una entree por sí mismo o como relleno de tacos y burritos. También hace una gran adición para nachos y quesadillas.

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.

A tasty filling for a low carb wrap

These burritos can be made ahead of time, individually frozen, then heated for a fast meal.

simple, delicious low fat, high protein dinner

This was an experiment that turned out delicious.

Hearty and healthy bean and vegetable enchiladas

Black beans, sweet potatoes and greens are spiced up and baked in egg roll wrappers to create burritos that are heavy on taste and light on calories. (Feel free to change this recipe with what you've got in the fridge. No sweet potatoes? Try zucchini or butternut squash. Swap kale for spinach, Swiss chard or your favorite green! Instead of black beans, try kidney, pinto or garbanzo beans.)

Picadillo is a traditional beef taco filling that makes a terrific complement to potatoes, beans, and/or rice. Think of it as a cute little burrito.
We've simplified the recipe to create a healthy E2 version.

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

Egg whites over salsa, beans and cheese!! YUM!
