######Refried Beans
(followed a recipe from u/lotusblossom60 they posted here some time ago)
– 2 small vidalia onions chopped and sautéed w/ a drizzle of olive oil
– 2 cans of black beans (low sodium) drained and rinsed
– blend the two together in a blender, with water so it makes a purée and then put it back in the pan you sautéd the onions in to cook off some of the water and get a thicker consistency
– Add adobo seasoning
– 1 Tablespoon of Paprika
– 2 teaspoons of black pepper
– 1 1/2 teaspoons of onion powder
– 1 1/2 teaspoons of dried oregano
– 1 1/ 2 teaspoons of cumin
– 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon of chili powder
As you can see from the images I measure seasoning not with spoons or cups, but with my heart <3
– 1/2 cup of mayonnaise
– 1/2 cup of sour cream
– 3 Tablespoons of pickled jalapeño juice
– 3 Tablespoons of pickled jalapeños diced
– 2 teaspoons of paprika
– 2 teaspoons of ground cumin
– 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon of onion powder
– 1/2 teaspoon of chili powder
######Spicy Rice
(followed my own recipe for taco seasoning)
– black pepper
– paprika
– Turmeric
– Chili powder
– Lots of cumin
– Garlic
– Onion powder
So I do deviated from Taco Bell’s cheesy bean and rice burrito by adding in cilantro and avocado. I’m sure everyone can find it in their hearts to forgive me. The tortilla I used is Mission Carb Balance Whole Wheat.
I tossed it back on a hot pan to “close” the burrito because it was very full and then cut in half for the picture. Enjoy!

I never got the appeal of Taco Bell, I appreciate the recipe and I imagine it tastes better than Taco Bell, but, Taco Bell to me was 81-88, I think it was pre Pepsi Co buy out, Burritos were bigger, you could get a box of 6 for under 5 bucks and they tasted much different, better.
That said, I am going to try the recipe because the ingredients look awesome & I can make them fresh!!

Also msg. You can make it taste more salty with less salt if you make an msg blend. Last time I said this the original poster posted their resize for umami salt. I finally wrote it down so I didn’t have to search for it every time. It’s changed my in-law family’s relationship with veg food.

Those spices really add color. It looks good and proper, especially because I feel like most recipes go overboard with salt/sodium content in general.

Am I crazy or is there no cheese in this?? Bc if I can make this just using a vegan sour cream, I’m gonna cry of happiness (I’m recently allergic to dairy and also a Taco Bell comfort eater lol)

Looks delicious! I applaud you for using a whole-wheat tortilla. I am not a nut and will eat white flour tortillas.

Completely unrelated, but my dad has that exact same plate. They were from my nan, she bought them back in the 70s I beleive.

I love Taco Bell’s bean burritos. But what is that? It looks kind of gross to be honest. Are those refried black beans?
I think I would just get a regular bean burrito and have them add rice to it if I wanted rice. I guess I’m sensitive to eating things with a lot of fat in it.

So I froze 2 of these and just thawed them out and microwaved them. Delicious. I guess that means you can make a bunch of these and if you freeze them eat them up to 45 days later 😮 – I mean at least.
