Spicy Bean Burritos


Don’t throw out the extra chipotles! Put them in a freezer bag and pop them in the freezer. When you need some for a recipe, chop off as much as needed and thaw to use.
Bean Filling:

2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp minced chipotle in adobo sauce
1 tsp ground cumin
¼ tsp salt
Dash cayenne pepper
1/3 cup chicken broth
1 (15 oz.) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (15 oz.) can pinto beans, rinsed and drained
6 tablespoons salsa

To Serve

Tortillas
Shredded cheese
Diced tomatoes
Chopped lettuce
Chopped green onions
Sour cream

Cook garlic in a small amount of oil just until fragrant (30-60 seconds). Add spices, broth and beans. Bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in salsa.
Spoon bean filling into tortillas, top with cheese, tomatoes, lettuce, green onions and sour cream to serve.
