Ingredients

1 can pinto beans (15 oz)1 can dark red kidney beans (15 oz)1 can diced green chiles (4 oz)1/2 cup water (about)2 tsp Tone's Beef Base2 tsp onion powder1 dash black pepper3 cubic inches cheddar cheese grated

Directions

Drain and rinse beans, mash about half of them in a blender (or with a smoothie wand right in the pan). Put in medium sauce pan and add green chiles (do not drain). Fill empty chile can half full of water and use to dissolve beef base. Once dissolved, stir and add to bean mixture. Rinse chile can and pour remaining water from can to sauce pan. Stir on medium heat until smoother. Add onion powder and black pepper. Continue stirring on medium heat till low boil is achieved. Grate cheddar cubes into pan and stir until melted. Let simmer for 5min or so to thicken.
Scoop 1/2 cup finished filling into each tortilla (I used Mission 96% fat free whole wheat medium size). Fold burritos and bake for 20 min at 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
