"Anna's Burritos" aka Black Bean Chicken Burritos

We first had these at my good friend Anna's house. So now we call them "Anna's burritos." Also a regular in our dinner rotation. The leftovers for this one always get eaten. :)Takes probably 20 minutes to make this.
Ingredients:
1/2 onion
2 cloves garlic
1/4- 1/2 c. honey
1 bunch cilantro
2 cans black beans (or about 8 oz of the dried beans if you want to use those.)
1 lb. cooked chicken
cheese
lime

Directions:
Saute 1/2 onion, 2 cloves garlic in pan. Add 1/4 to 1/2 cup honey depending on how sweet you want it. (Sometimes I add more later after it's all done and it's not quite sweet enough.) Add 1 bunch chopped cilantro. Cook honey and cilantro for about 2 or 3 minutes. Add about 2 cans black beans and 1 lb. cooked and chopped (or shredded) chicken. Heat until boiling and most of liquid is evaporated. Serve in warm tortillas with lime and cheese.

* Make SURE you rinse those canned black beans or it'll be mushy and soggy! We actually like it better when we make it with the dried beans we've soaked and cooked ourselves. But, sometimes you just don't have the motivation/foresight/time for that!

  1. Ah - we've eaten these a la Anna. We ended up having a nice conversation on being vegetarians, which neither Ryan and I are.
