Cooking Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 10 Inch (in) flour tortilla
• 0.25 Cups vegetarian refried beans
• 1 Slice American cheese, [substitute with shredded 4-cheese Mexican blend if desired]
• 1 Pinch ground black pepper, to taste
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) low-fat sour cream
• 1 Dash hot pepper sauce, to taste
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) lime juice, optional
• 1 Tablespoon (tbsp) green onions, sliced, optional
• 2 Tablespoons (tbsp) picante sauce, optional

Steps

1. Heat the Beans: In a small pot, heat the refried beans over medium heat until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Stir in the lime juice for a fresh kick, if using.
2. Warm the Tortilla: In a dry frying pan over medium-high heat, warm the tortilla for about 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable.
3. Assemble the Burrito: Lay the warm tortilla on a flat surface. Spread the heated refried beans in the center. Layer with the cheese slice (or substitute with shredded cheese), sprinkle with black pepper, and add a dollop of sour cream. Drizzle with hot pepper sauce to taste.
4. Roll the Burrito: Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to encase the filling completely.
5. Serve: Garnish with sliced green onions and serve with picante sauce on the side for dipping. Enjoy your Spicy Cheesy Bean Burrito warm.
