Other components

  • Large 12" flour tortillas

For the beans, it's as simple as tossing a can of beans into a pot, adding a bay leaf, a sprinkle of ground cumin, and some salt to taste. Let it for 10 minutes. For extra flavor, you can add a bit of achiote paste as well.

While those are going, prep any final toppings you want for your burrito. Get out your favorite salsa or hot sauce, thinly slice some lettuce, grate some cheese, and lastly warm a tortilla until soft and pliable.
