Turkey and Black Bean Burritos

Woo hoo - here comes the first recipe :-) This is a really easy recipe that we tried last week.

Turkey & Black Bean Burritos
(From Good Housekeeping)

1 TB oil
1 lb ground turkey
1 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup finely chopped red pepper (I used green - they were cheaper)
1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
1/4 cup barbecue sauce
4 tsp lime juice
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp ground cumin
salt
4 (12-inch) whole wheat flour tortillas
1 cup lettuce
1/2 cup low-fat Cheddar cheese, shredded
Hot sauce (optional)

1. In skillet, heat oil on medium until hot. Add turkey and cook 7 minutes or until browned, stirring occasionally and breaking up the meat.

2. Add beans, pepper, onion, barbecue sauce, lime juice, chili powder, cumin and 1/4 teaspoon salt; cook mixture 5 to 7 minutes or until turkey is cooked through.

3. To serve, place turkey mixture on tortilla; top with lettuce and cheese. (We added sour cream too.) Roll tightly and serve with hot sauce, if you like.
