  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • 1 cup cooked rice
  • 1 cup canned black beans, drained and rinsed (if not using meat)
  • 1 cup corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
  • Juice of 1 lime (optional)
For assembling:
  • Large flour tortillas
  • Optional toppings: salsa, sour cream, guacamole, chopped lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced jalapeños, hot sauce, etc.
Instructions:
  1. Prepare the Filling:
    • In a large skillet, heat some oil over medium heat. Add the diced onions and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
    • Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
    • If using ground meat, add it to the skillet and cook until browned and cooked through, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks.
    • If using cooked shredded meat or beans, add them to the skillet along with the diced bell pepper, cooked rice, black beans (if using), and corn kernels.
    • Season the filling with ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine.
    • If desired, squeeze lime juice over the filling and stir in chopped cilantro.
    • Let the filling simmer for a few minutes until everything is heated through and well combined. Remove from heat.
  2. Assemble the Burritos:
    • Lay a flour tortilla flat on a clean surface.
    • Spoon a generous amount of the filling onto the center of the tortilla.
    • Sprinkle some shredded cheese over the filling.
    • Add any optional toppings you like, such as salsa, sour cream, guacamole, lettuce, tomatoes, or jalapeños.
    • Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to form a burrito.
  3. Serve:
    • Place the assembled burritos seam-side down on a plate.
    • Optionally, you can warm them up in the microwave or on a skillet for a few minutes to melt the cheese and crisp up the tortilla.
    • Serve the burritos immediately with additional toppings on the side, if desired.
Enjoy your homemade burritos!
