Here is the recipe I tried tonight at dinner. Very yummy vegetarian burritos:-) My husband was amazed that a vegetarian dish could be so delicious and tasty:-)
6 Flour tortillas (8 inch)--I used four 10" tortillas
2 medium potatoes, quartered
Boiling water, to cover
2 tsp. cooking oil
1 1/4 cups chopped onion
2 garlic cloves, minced (or 1/2 tsp. garlic powder)
398 ml/14 oz. can of kidney (or pinto) beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 tsp. dried oregano
1/2 tsp. ground cumin
1/2 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
Cheese (this wasn't in the recipe, but I think it is a good addition--just a bit to sprinkle in each burrito)
Wrap tortillas in foil. Heat in 350 degree oven for 8-10 minutes. I did this while the potatoes were cooking.
Cook potatoes in boiling water until tender-crisp. Cool enough to handle. Dice. Set aside.
Heat cooking oil in frying pan. Add onion and garlic. Saute until soft and golden. Remove from heat.
Empty kidney beans into bowl. Add oregano, cumin, salt and pepper. Mash well with fork. Add to onion mixture. Also, add the diced potatoes. Heat, stirring often, until hot.
When the tortillas are warmed up, divide bean mixture & a sprinkle of cheese down the center of each tortilla. Fold 1 side over, then ends, then roll. Filling should be completely enclosed. If not serving immediately, wrap in foil and place in 200 degree oven. (It is probably good to let them sit in the oven for a bit so the cheese can melt.)
Serve with the following options:
Salsa--I made my own fresh salsa (finely minced tomato, onion, bit of cilantro and lime juice)
Sour cream
Guacamole--I just mashed up 1/2 an avacado and stirred in some of the regular store-bought salsa
