Each week Dinner @ 6 will highlight a recipe using just 6 ingredients that was submitted by a reader. This week’s recipe was submitted by Jennifer M.:
Easy Bean Burritos
6 6in. flour tortillas (burrito sized!)
1 12oz. can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup grated cheddar or “mexican mix” cheese
1 cup of your favorite salsa
1 cup plan nonfat yogurt
Cilantro to taste
Steam tortillas until pliable. On each tortilla spoon 1.5 oz. of the beans, 1/2 oz. of cheese, 1 tablespoon of the salsa, 1 tablespoon of yogurt and a dash of cilantro. Roll, burrito style, and place seamside down in a baking pan. Pour the remaining salsa over the burritos (and top with a little bit of cheese if you choose). Bake at 425 for 4-6 minutes until thoroughly heated.
Only 179 calories and chock full of protein at 10.9g/burrito! 6.5g fat, so…not horrible!

These sounds really quick and easy! Something my teens could even handle. I am ashamed to admit I have never in my life used plain yogurt. I bet you can replace sour cream with it and not even know the difference. I am going to have to try these out. Thanks for sharing!
You’re welcome! I’m sure sour cream would be just as good if not better (tasting at least!)
