Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups (drained and rinsed) Canned black beans
- 1.5 cups (drained) Canned corn kernels
- 1 14-ounce can (with liquid) Diced tomatoes
- 1 medium, finely chopped Red onion
- 2 medium (any color, chopped) Bell peppers
- 1 medium, diced Zucchini
- 3 minced Garlic cloves
- 2 teaspoons Cumin powder
- 2 teaspoons Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste) Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1.5 cups Vegetable broth
- 0.25 cup (chopped, optional for garnish) Fresh cilantro
Instructions
Begin by preparing all your vegetables: finely chop the red onion, dice the zucchini, and chop the bell peppers into bite-sized pieces.
In a 6-quart slow cooker, combine the canned black beans, canned corn, diced tomatoes with their liquid, red onion, bell peppers, zucchini, and minced garlic.
Sprinkle the cumin powder, chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper evenly over the vegetables.
Pour in the vegetable broth and stir everything together to combine the flavors evenly.
Set your slow cooker to the low setting and cook for 4 hours, or cook on the high setting for 2 hours. Stir occasionally if desired, but it's not required.
Once the filling has finished cooking, taste and adjust seasonings if needed. If there is extra liquid, let it sit uncovered on the warm setting for 10-15 minutes to thicken slightly.
Serve the veggie burrito filling warm inside tortillas, topped with cilantro if desired, or over rice as a burrito bowl. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
