Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, cooking until softened and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.

  2. Stir in the ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for an additional minute to toast the spices.

  3. Add the fresh spinach leaves to the skillet and cook, stirring frequently, until wilted, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. Incorporate the cooked rice and black beans into the skillet, stirring well to combine all ingredients. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.

  5. Preheat a separate non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.

  6. Assemble the burritos by placing a generous scoop of the spinach and bean mixture onto each flour tortilla. Top with a sprinkle of shredded cheese.

  7. Fold the sides of the tortilla in towards the center, then roll up from the bottom to create a burrito.

  8. Place the burritos seam-side down on the preheated skillet or griddle. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.

  9. Serve the Spinach and Cheese Burritos hot, garnished with salsa, sour cream, and avocado slices if desired. Enjoy your flavorful and wholesome meal!
