Ingredients

• 4 pieces Vegetarian Sausages
• 4 pieces Large Flour Tortillas
• 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
• 1 large Red Bell Pepper
• 1 large Green Bell Pepper
• 1 medium Yellow Onion
• 15 ounces Canned Black Beans
• 1 teaspoon Ground Cumin
• 1 teaspoon Chili Powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
• 1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
• 0.5 cup Sour Cream
• 0.5 cup Salsa
• 0.25 cup Fresh Cilantro

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the vegetables: finely chop the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and onion.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 3

Add the chopped red and green bell peppers to the skillet and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften.

Step 4

Slice the vegetarian sausages into bite-sized pieces and add them to the skillet, cooking until browned and heated through, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 5

Drain and rinse the canned black beans. Add them to the skillet along with the ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine, and cook for another 3 minutes until the beans are warm.

Step 6

Warm the flour tortillas by placing them in a dry skillet over low heat for about 30 seconds on each side or wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 15-20 seconds.

Step 7

To assemble the burritos, place a tortilla flat on a clean surface and spread a couple of spoonfuls of the sausage and vegetable mixture in the center.

Step 8

Sprinkle about 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the mixture.

Step 9

Add a tablespoon each of sour cream and salsa on top of the cheese, and sprinkle with fresh cilantro.

Step 10

Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up from the bottom to the top, securing all the filling inside.

Step 11

Repeat with the remaining tortillas and serve warm.
