Black Bean Burritos
I made these burritos for dinner last night. I think they're the best burritos I've ever had; certainly the best I've ever had at home. The filling was sooo good and they were so easy to make; they will definitely become a regular at our house. It was hard to get a good picture...I don't think the insides of burritos are very "pretty"; but, what they lack in presentation is more than made up for in taste. You could certainly add chicken or beef to these, but they were great on their own. Also, I stuffed them with mexican rice, but you could serve the rice on the side, if you prefer.
