• Blend pinto beans, tomato sauce, and taco seasoning in a food processor until a paste forms.
• Cook and stir pinto bean mixture in a skillet over medium heat until warmed, about 5 minutes.
• Place tortillas on a plate and heat in microwave on high until warm, about 30 seconds. Spread warm pinto bean mixture, shredded lettuce, and Colby Jack cheese onto each warm tortilla. Roll the tortilla around the filling to form a burrito.

Steps:

• Drain the cooked beans and save the liquid.
• Saute the garlic and onions in oil for several minutes until onions are translucent.
• Add the peppers and all of the spices and continue to saute until peppers are tender.
• Cover the vegetables, remove from heat, and set aside.
• Mash the beans with a potato masher adding enough of the reserved liquid to reach the consistency of mashed potatoes.
• Mix the mashed beans, vegetables, corn, olives, and cheese. Salt to taste.
• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Place each tortilla flat on the counter.
• Spoon about 1/2 - 3/4 cup bean mixture onto the tortilla half closest to you.
• Roll the tortillas from the bottom up, putting pressure on the fililng so that it will be evenly distributed and will reach the open edges of the rolled tortilla.
• Place the burritos, rolled edge down in an oiled baking pan.
• Brush will oil, cover with a damp cottom cloth, and bake, tightly covered with foil for 45 minutes.
• Uncover the pan, remove the cloth, sprinkle with additional grated cheese and bake 5 more minutes.
• Serve the burritos topped with sour cream.

Steps:

• In a food processor, process beans and seasonings until smooth.
• Spread out the 8 tortillas; add an equal amount of the bean mixture in the center of each tortilla.
• On top of the bean mixture on each tortilla, add a sprinkle of mozzarella and cheddar cheese, some salsa, chopped pepper, and sour cream.
• Fold tortillas up into burritos (fold the bottom third of tortilla over the filling; fold over both sides of tortilla; roll up to enclose the filling).
• Place burritos in a nonstick frying pan or electric frying pan over medium heat.
• Flip burritos often until golden brown.
• OAMC; To Freeze - For a quick snack or dinner later on, after finishing frying, place single burritos (or family size portions if for a family meal) into plastic storage bags, then place individual bags into large freezer bag and freeze.
• To re-heat - When ready for a burrito, pop it out of the bag and heat in the microwave for 1-2 minutes on medium power. Or, for a crispier burrito, pan fry the burrito until warm the outside is crisp.

Steps:

• To make the beans, heat the oil in a pan and fry the garlic for a minute, then stir in the chipotle paste. Tip in the tomatoes, stir and bring to a simmer. Season with salt. Simmer until thick, add the beans and cook briefly (make sure any water gets cooked off), then stir in the coriander.
• If you are using cold cooked rice, then warm it through, stir in the lime juice, red onion and nuts and season well.
• Lay out the tortillas and sprinkle over some spinach, add some avocado slices and some rice, then top with the bean mix. Add a shake of hot sauce, if you like. Roll the bottom up, then fold the sides in to stop the filling falling out as you roll. Wrap tightly in foil, if you like, and cut in half.
