    Chicken and Bean Burrito

    Ingredients:

    • 16 ounce can refried beans , pinto or black
    • 2 cups chopped rotisserie chicken
    • 1 bell pepper of choice finely chopped
    • ½ cup salsa
    • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
    • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
    • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
    • 1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese
    • 8 8 inch tortillas (My fave are the uncooked Tortilla Fresca brand fro Costco)

    Directions:

    1. Add the refried beans, salsa, chili powder, garlic powder cumin, bell pepper and ½ cup of cheese to a mixing bowl and stir until combined
    2. Spoon about three tablespoons of the bean mixture onto the center of a tortilla and smooth into a thin layer, followed by chopped rotisserie chicken
    3. Sprinkle with a small handful of cheese. Roll tightly. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
    4. You can heat these in the microwave if you prefer a soft burrito- about 30 seconds. Or you can heat in a skillet or air fryer if you prefer a crispier outside. Spray each burrito with olive oil spray, and heat on the skillet until each side is crispy. If using the air fryer, heat on 400 for about 4 minutes.,
    5. These also freeze great! After building the burritos, I wrap in saran wrap and freeze. Heat as desired when ready! For the kids lunches, I heat in the am, and they dont mind them room temp!
    6. I drizzled taco sauce on top! You can add guacamole and sour cream too!
