Ingredients

• 2 10 Inch (in) flour tortillas
• 2 Tablespoons (tbsp) vegetable oil
• 1 Small onion, minced
• 0.5 Red bell pepper, minced
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) garlic, minced
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) jalapeño peppers, minced

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Wrap the tortillas in foil.
2. Bake the wrapped tortillas in the preheated oven until heated through, about 15 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, heat the vegetable oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the minced onion, minced red bell pepper, minced garlic, and minced jalapeño peppers. Cook and stir for 2 minutes.
4. Stir in the drained black beans and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes.
5. Add the cubed cream cheese and salt to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes until the cream cheese is melted and well combined. Stir in the minced fresh cilantro.
6. Spoon the filling in a line across the middle of each tortilla. Fold the opposing edges of the tortilla to overlap the filling, then roll one of the opposing edges around the filling to create a burrito.
7. Serve immediately and enjoy your creamy black bean burritos!
