Ingredients List: Vegetarian Black Bean Burritos
Pan sheet cooked veggies and halloumi mixed with black beans and rolled in tortillas for a quick and easy dinner.
- Halloumi cheese: we love to grill halloumi cheese and mix with all the spices. It brings a tangy and salty taste.
- Black beans: use canned beans. Rinse well before using.
- Red onion: diced red onion will bring sweetness to this recipe.
- Red pepper: to add crunch. You can also use yellow or orange pepper.
- Corn: use canned corn.
- Spices & olive oil: we use paprika, cumin, chili powder and onion powder. We also drizzle olive oil on the sheet pan.
- Lime juice: for acidity.
- Tortillas: I like to use whole wheat tortillas.
How to Make Vegetarian Black Bean Burrito with Halloumi?
- Pan sheet cooked veggies & halloumi: we first add diced red onion, diced red pepper and halloumi cubes onto a baking sheet with spices, olive oil and lime juice. We cook it for 20 minutes, tossing halfway through.
- Add corn and black beans: add to the cooked veggies and halloumi and mix.
- Assemble in a tortilla and grill: spoon the mix in the center of each tortilla, add avocado/guacamole and lettuce, leaving room all the way around. Fold each tortilla and grill in a cast iron pan or panini grill. Serve with salsa and/or sour cream.
Serving Suggestions:
- Sliced avocado or homemade guacamole. Here’s an easy way to make guacamole: in a small bowl, peel and mash 2 ripe avocados. Add juice of ½ lime and 2 tbsp of plain greek yogurt. Season and mix well.
- Lettuce for some crunch
- Salsa: either store-bought salsa or pico de gallo.
- Sour cream or plain greek yogurt for a delicious creamy condiment.
How to Store it? Can You Prepare Vegetarian Black Bean Burrito in Advance?
Meal prep: you can prepare this recipe in advance. I recommend assembling the tortillas when you’re ready to eat. You can easily prepare burrito filling mix beforehand. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Leftovers? The black bean burrito filling can also be enjoyed as a burrito bowl. Serve it over brown rice or quinoa and add your favorite toppings.
