We make a lot of burritos around here, and they almost always turn out as vegetarian burritos. They are one of my go-to recipes —super easy to make and always turn out great. As long as I don’t burn the tortillas. You can eat them plain or you can always freshen them up with tomatoes, guacamole, lettuce, etc.

Anyway, it’s rare for me to actually follow a recipe for burritos. But yeah, this vegetarian burritos one was super, super good! In fact, the other day my husband was organizing all our cans, and he told me to stop buying black beans and kidney beans because we have way more of those than anything else. Hmm, maybe I crave these burritos every time I go grocery shopping and somehow a few cans of black beans and kidney beans end up in the cart?
