Ingredients

• 2 cups (drained and rinsed) Canned black beans
• 1.5 cups (drained) Canned corn kernels
• 1 14-ounce can (with liquid) Diced tomatoes
• 1 medium, finely chopped Red onion
• 2 medium (any color, chopped) Bell peppers
• 1 medium, diced Zucchini
• 3 minced Garlic cloves
• 2 teaspoons Cumin powder
• 2 teaspoons Chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste) Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1.5 cups Vegetable broth
• 0.25 cup (chopped, optional for garnish) Fresh cilantro

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing all your vegetables: finely chop the red onion, dice the zucchini, and chop the bell peppers into bite-sized pieces.

Step 2

In a 6-quart slow cooker, combine the canned black beans, canned corn, diced tomatoes with their liquid, red onion, bell peppers, zucchini, and minced garlic.

Step 3

Sprinkle the cumin powder, chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper evenly over the vegetables.

Step 4

Pour in the vegetable broth and stir everything together to combine the flavors evenly.

Step 5

Set your slow cooker to the low setting and cook for 4 hours, or cook on the high setting for 2 hours. Stir occasionally if desired, but it's not required.

Step 6

Once the filling has finished cooking, taste and adjust seasonings if needed. If there is extra liquid, let it sit uncovered on the warm setting for 10-15 minutes to thicken slightly.

Step 7

Serve the veggie burrito filling warm inside tortillas, topped with cilantro if desired, or over rice as a burrito bowl. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
