Instructions:
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add bell peppers and red onion; sauté for 4–5 minutes until softened.
- Stir in black beans and corn; cook for an additional 2–3 minutes until heated through. Add spinach and stir just until wilted. Remove from heat.
- Lay out the tortillas and divide the veggie mixture evenly down the center of each. Top with shredded cheddar, Monterey Jack, and a drizzle of avocado crema.
- Fold in the sides and roll tightly into burritos.
- Heat a clean skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil. Grill the burritos for 2–3 minutes per side, pressing gently, until golden and the cheese is melted.
- Slice and serve warm, with extra avocado crema or your favorite salsa.
Variations :
- Add sliced jalapeños or hot sauce for a spicy version.
- Use vegan cheese and dairy-free crema to make it fully plant-based.
- Swap spinach with kale or arugula for a different green.
- Try adding cooked quinoa or rice for an even heartier burrito.
Tips :
- To keep tortillas from tearing, warm them slightly before assembling.
- Use a cast iron skillet or grill press to achieve an evenly golden crust.
- Make ahead and reheat in a toaster oven or air fryer for crispness.
- For avocado crema, blend 1 ripe avocado with 2 tablespoons sour cream or Greek yogurt, 1 garlic clove, a splash of lime juice, and a pinch of salt.
