It was my time to cook tonight and I had no idea what to make.
Bianca and I went to the shop to buy her some sparkling water and hopefully be inspired by something.
In the shop, we went to, they put stickers on products that are about to be thrown away.
You get a nice discount (35%).
I found tortillas, meat and a bag with cut ' Mexican' vegetables on sale.
Mexican (Dutch) Burritos was the meal for tonight!
Pretty healthy I would think.
Bianca found a can of refried black beans. I never heard of it but she guaranteed to me it was good stuff.
I always like to try something new so I went it.
Let's cook.
Ingredients: Meat, refried black beans in a can, Salsa, red onion, garlic, cilantro (for me, Bianca hates it), Tortillas, bay leaves, dried lemongrass, cayenne pepper, paprika powder.
I cut the meat into strips and then put them in the meat grinder. It takes about a minute to grind everything.
I cut an onion and crushed some garlic and put them in a pan with some oil. I fried them for 2 minutes then I added the meat.
I added bay leaf, cayenne pepper, paprika powder and salt to the mixture.
I cooked the meat till just under. Then I added the vegetables.
While everything was cooking I made a quick guacamole by mixing together an avocado, red onion and cilantro.
Then came the most adventurous part of the dish. I opened the can of refried black beans. Now if you own a dog you understand my initial reaction :). But it tasted great. I added it to the mixture and also added some water.
I took a tortilla and put it in a hot pan (no oil) to warm up.
End result! A very simple yet tasty dish! I added the meat mixture in the middle and topped it off with the guacamole and salsa. Folding them is not my strength (as you can see) but it works!

We've been a trek for a healthy lifestyle here and one of my go-to meals, one that my husband loves, is fajitas made with venison and all the healthy veggie toppings. I'll whip up my kefir sour cream with green chilies and a dash or two of cayenne pepper to top them off with. We just had them Monday- so easy, yummy and healthier for us.
Refried black beans are AWESOME for dipping with toasted tortilla chips for a snack too. Did you end up liking them?

I rub in a mixture of spices and seasonings- cumin, crushed red pepper flakes, a dash of cinnamon, onion and garlic powder and some paprika, slice it thin and quick sautee it up in EVOO. I add some sliced green bell peppers and onions. And if I have fresh jalapenos from the garden or dehydrated I'll toss a few in, seeds and all.

It can be but when we add the sour cream and avocado/guacamole it tends to smooth out the heat to a more palatable level

Tortilla recipe is always great, and this recipe looks really tasty. I would have cooked it without the blackbeans.
I like blackbeans mixed in yogurt, green chilli , boiled potatoes, , and cherry tomatoes. Chilli, potatoes and tomatoes should be cut in small pieces, and then add salt, some spices (like red chilli powder). It tastes great.

They are! My girlfriend makes quesadillas with them, having fried them in garlic and chilli with smoked cheese as well in the filling. They are awesome but she soaks the dried beans overnight. I have always thought it a faff so I would be tempted to go down the tinned route myself lol!

Excellent meal tonight, @exyle! Homemade burritos are the best. I would have to agree refried beans in a can are not nice to look at. We make our own beans here. Simple and tasty. Cheap too. I am with Bianca. No cilantro, please! I am allergic to the stuff.

Bianca usually makes the black beans in the pressure cooker. It's delicious but it takes time. This can option wasn't bad, but as usual, nothing beats something well home-made.

I can't believe you've not had refried beans before when eating Mexican. 😁 Glad you enjoyed them. We usually have the red ones.
You'll need to try fajitas next. They're really tasty.
Great photos by the way! 😊

We buy an Old El Paso fajita kit from the supermarket that contains tortillas, spices and salsa. You chop up chicken breasts into 1 cm wide slices and cook in the spices with onions and chopped peppers.
Then you serve the spiced chicken with sour cream, guacamole and refried beans all wrapped in the warmed tortillas. Yum!
And we like to serve with a nice glass of red! 😁

Fajitas are grilled strips of meat combined with spice, onions, and bell peppers. Round these parts, they are served on a sizzling cast iron skillet with guacamole, sour cream, and salsa as condiments. Really Yum!

From what you wrote I think the big difference between burritos and fajitas is the meat. It has to be grilled slices. I think I own a device that is perfect for this :). Thanks!

Also, as @doctorjohn says, if you're in a restaurant, the ingredients for the fajitas are served on a sizzling cast skillet. Also, burritos are served with rice I think.

I'd suggest next time adding some grated cheese it really gives the burrito a fuller(is that a word) taste. One thing I have found is also buying a packet of guacamole mix powder is a great way to enhance the taste. To be honest the burrito you made does look really quite tasty. Keep on steemin!

Definitely a tremendous job not for cooking such a mouth watering food but for the fact that you preferred cooking healthy protein rich, full of vegetables food by yourself rather than just going out for a dinner. Not only after getting getting tired will you feel the food more tasty but what it will do is keep you healthy and fit.
