Rinse and drain the canned black beans. Set them aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and red bell pepper to the skillet and sauté for 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft.
Stir in the minced garlic, ground cumin, and chili powder, and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
Add the black beans, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beans are heated through.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the vegan shredded cheese until it starts to melt.
Warm the flour tortillas in a separate pan over medium heat or in the microwave just until pliable, about 30 seconds.
To assemble the burritos, place a tortilla on a flat surface. Add a spoonful of the bean mixture to the center of the tortilla.
Top with slices of avocado, chopped cilantro, and a spoonful of salsa.
Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it tightly into a burrito shape.
Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Serve the burritos warm with extra salsa on the side if desired.
