Black Bean and Artichoke Burritos

"I do a lot of vegan cooking so we try new stuff all the time. Both my boyfriend and I liked this recipe, but I recommend a few changes. One: don't drain and rinse the black beans; they don't "boil"..." See more when there's no liquid in them. Learned this the hard way, d'oh! Two: They need spices, or they're a wee bit bland. I added two teaspoons of chili powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of cumin to the artichoke/onion mix. Three: I added a chopped red pepper in along with the onions, garlic, and artichokes. Purely my own taste. Four: I recommend grilling these or sauteeing them after you've assembled the burritos. It keeps them together much better, and gives them a little crunch (assuming you like that). "

"This was very very very good! I did make a few alterations... I left out tomatoes and added a cup of rice and some cut up chicken breast cooked in taco seasoning. I also cooked the beans and artichok..." See morees together in a pot and mashed them up. Very flavorful and easy to make. Both my fiance and I loved it! It's a wonderful starter recipe, there's lots you can add to it."

"These were great. I did modify the recipe to a certain degree. I washed the beans and added a cup of water and let the cook out, once they were almost done, I added in salt, pep,garlic powder, paprika..." See more, chili powder and cumin powder to the beans. When I cooked the artichokes I also added in green onions, jalapeño pepper and a tomato to the artichoke mixture and I seasoned with some salt as well. I also made some cilantro lime rice for the burritos. To each burrito in addition to the beans, rice, and artichokes I added in salsa and cheese. These were great, a very good summer burrito with fresh flavors. "
