Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Flour tortillas (large, vegan-friendly)
- 1 cup Canned black beans
- 1 cup Sweet corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned, drained)
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup Red onion (finely chopped)
- 1 cup Red bell pepper (finely diced)
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
- 2 pieces Garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (finely chopped)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice (freshly squeezed)
- 0.5 cup Vegan cheddar cheese (optional, shredded)
- as needed Vegan sour cream (optional, for serving)
- as needed Guacamole (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the red onion and red bell pepper, and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened.
Add the minced garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika, and chili powder. Stir well and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Mix in the tomato paste and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring to incorporate the flavors.
Add the black beans and sweet corn to the skillet. Stir well to combine with the spices and vegetables. Cook for 3-4 minutes, allowing the mixture to heat through.
Remove the skillet from heat and mix in the fresh cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Lay out a flour tortilla on a flat surface. Spoon a generous amount of the filling onto the center of the tortilla and, if desired, sprinkle vegan cheddar cheese over the filling.
Roll the tortilla tightly like a burrito: fold in the sides, then roll from the bottom upwards, tucking in as you go.
Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Optional: For added crispness, heat a clean skillet over medium heat. Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Serve warm with vegan sour cream, guacamole, or your preferred Tex-Mex toppings.
