I am going to make these with a twist. I make my own refried beans often and keep boxes in the freezer. Recently I made some chalupas, refried beans with chunks of pork shoulder in it, and I also have boxes of these in the freezer. Anyway I am thinking burritos filled with chalupas. :)

These were good and easy!!! Best of all......I had everything right at home for them :). I thought the tomato sauce didn't taste right when tasting it out of the pan, but it tasted great over the top of the burritos.

These were really good! I scaled the recipe down for 2, using 2 whole grain tortillas. I just used 1 can of vegetarian beans, mashing half. I used a mix of Monterey Jack and Cheddar cheese. Thanks for a yummy dinner! Made for Newest Zaar tag.

Thank you to everyone who reviews my recipes! I love hearing feedback and new ideas. I only post things I have made and DH and I both like. Some of my favorite things are creating new meals, trying new foods, and this wonderful site. DH and I usually cook together. Cooking is even more fun with company and conversation. We have been mostly vegetarian but occasionally pescetarian for several years, and I collect all the vegetarian cookbooks I can get my hands on, especially vintage. I try to think about the sources and processes my food goes through before arriving at the store. For fun I take pictures, make digital mandalas, play with my cats and dogs, make websites for animal rescues, and I am learning to grow vegetables and herbs.
