Directions
Step 1
Open the can of low sodium black beans, drain and rinse them thoroughly under cold water to further reduce sodium content.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the rinsed black beans, salt-free taco seasoning, and water.
Step 3
Bring the mixture to a simmer and stir occasionally for about 5 minutes, until the beans are heated through and the water has reduced slightly.
Step 4
Warm the whole wheat flour tortillas by placing them on a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side or until warm and pliable.
Step 5
Lay each tortilla on a flat surface. Evenly distribute the seasoned black beans across the center of each tortilla.
Step 6
Top the beans with a generous sprinkle of reduced sodium shredded cheddar cheese.
Step 7
Add a sprinkle of fresh cilantro and slices of avocado to each burrito, distributing evenly.
Step 8
Fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll them tightly from the bottom to form burritos.
