Whip up these delicious burritos tonight for a satisfying meal that's loaded with protein and flavor!
Begin by dicing the onion and bell pepper. Mince the garlic cloves.
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the skillet, cooking for about 5 minutes until they begin to soften.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute, until fragrant.
Add 1 pound of turkey to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook until it’s browned and fully cooked, roughly 8-10 minutes.
Drain and rinse the black beans, then add them to the skillet along with 1 teaspoon each of cumin and chili powder, and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Cook for an additional 5 minutes for the flavors to meld, stirring occasionally.
While the filling is cooking, warm the tortillas in a separate pan or microwave until pliable.
Spoon equal amounts of the turkey and bean mixture into the center of each tortilla, followed by a sprinkle of cheddar cheese.
Wrap the tortillas tightly and serve immediately, or place them seam-side down in a baking dish.
If desired, bake the burritos in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes to melt the cheese and crisp the tortillas.
