Black Bean Burritos - Take 2

I made these black bean burritos again, this time with better results. The first time I attempted to find a healthy version of a soft tortilla shell without any preservatives and ended up with a pasty version that was rock hard and difficult to fold after only seconds of being heated. This time I stuck with the usual slightly less healthy but much more tasty tortilla shell and I enjoyed the meal even more. This time around I did discover two new products:
Armstrong cheese - a surprisingly good light style cheese. I purchased the old variety. I usually find light cheeses to be tasteless but this brand is very flavourful.
Newman's Own salsa - is a salsa made of all natural ingredients with low sugar and salt levels.

SERVED WITH: All on their own. I ate one and half and was stuffed full.

COOKING TIPS: If you like your food spicy then double the amount of chili peppers the recipe calls for.

RATING: Still an 8.

Black Bean Burritos

I am getting hungry just looking at the pictures above. These black bean burritos are yummy and hearty. This is another one of those vegetarian GI Diet meals that you would swear has meat in it. Not because of the flavor but because of how delicious and filling it is. I did however have a hard time finding a soft tortilla shell that I would consider to be healthy and ended up with a pasty version that hardened quickly after being heated up. But despite my tortilla fiasco I still enjoyed this dish and would certainly make it again. If I find a better shell the next time I will definitely let you know.

SERVED WITH: Feeling lazy that night I served them all on their own. But they would have been nice with a healthy garden salad.

COOKING TIPS: Heat up your tortilla shells as you eat them. No matter the variety of shell they will go hard if left to sit to long after being heated up.

RATING: 8. Imagining I made them with better shells.
