Crispy Baked Black Bean Burritos - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 (16 ounce) can black beans, drained
    1 (14 ounce) can vegetarian refried beans
    2 teaspoons chili powder
    1/2 teaspoon cumin
    1/2 teaspoon minced garlic clove (about 1 clove)
    12 flour tortillas, soft taco size
    6 scallions, chopped (optional)
    2 tomatoes, chopped (or 1 14 oz. can diced tomatoes drained)
    1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
    salsa, for serving
    low-fat sour cream, for serving
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 400. Combine black and refried beans in a saucepan, and add the chili powder, cumin and garlic. Simmer for 5 minutes. Mash the bean mixture into a thick puree (I use a potato masher right in the pan).
    On a plate, lay a tortilla flat and place 2 tablespoons of the bean mixture in the center of the tortilla. Top with some scallions, tomatoes and cheese. Roll up into a tube shape and place into a 9x13-inch baking pan, seam side down. Repeat until you've used all the tortillas and/or bean mixture.
    Bake the burritos until they are browned, about 15 minutes. Top with salsa and/or sour cream as desired.
