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

How Do I Make Unchained Recipe Contest - Black Bean Burrito?

Here is how you make Unchained Recipe Contest - Black Bean Burrito:

This recipe makes 4 servings. I usually make the recipe using the entire can of black beans and petite diced tomatoes, but only use 1/4 cup of each per burrito.Beans: In a sauce pan combine black beans (do not drain), thyme, sage and lime juice. Cook over medium heat until boiling, lower heat to simmer. Stir constantly to prevent sticking.Salsa (If preferred you can use any jar of salsa, however I prefer to make my own, the taste is MUCH better): In a bowl combine can of diced tomatoes (drain if preferred, I usually drain about half of the liquid), cilantro and jalapenos. Add salt to taste. The longer this sits the better the flavor, can make ahead the night before.To prepare burrito:Make sure tortilla is not cold. Either take them out of refrigerator a few hours before making or put in microwave (with a paper towel on top) for about 10 seconds until warmed. Take tortilla; lay on plate, counter or cutting board. In the middle of the tortilla spoon in 1/4 cup of rice , ? cup of beans and 1/4 cup of cheese. Fold in two sides then roll up. The less you put inside the easier it is to roll, plus it makes a prettier presentation. Top with 1/4 cup salsa and 2 tbsp sour cream. If preferred you can make and use guacamole as well.Number of Servings: 4Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user DAWNEG.
