Preparation

Orange Black Bean Burrito

In saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat.  Add onions and garlic; sauté for 3 to 4 minutes. Add black beans, orange juice, lime juice, brown sugar and chili powder; stir to combine. Simmer for 5 minutes; remove from heat.

Heat large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Place tortillas on counter; sprinkle evenly with shredded cheeses. Top each tortilla with one- half cup bean mix, shredded lettuce and cilantro.  Fold two sides in; then fold over the front edge and roll up and place flap side down into the hot pan.  Cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until golden brown and slightly crispy. Remove from the pan and cut in half on the diagonal; serve immediately with salsa, guacamole and sour cream.
