Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 burrito)
Ingredients
- 1 (7-ounce) can chipotle chiles in adobo sauce
- 1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream
- 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed, drained, and divided
- 1 cup frozen whole-kernel corn, thawed
- 4 (8-inch) flour tortillas
- Cooking spray
- 1 cup bottled salsa
- 1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded Monterey Jack cheese
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350°.
Remove one chile from can. Chop chile. Reserve remaining adobo sauce and chiles for another use. Combine sour cream and chile in a medium bowl; let stand 10 minutes.
Place half of beans in a food processor; process until finely chopped. Add chopped beans, remaining beans, and corn to sour cream mixture.
Spoon 1/2 cup bean mixture down the center of each tortilla. Roll up tortillas; place, seam side down, in an 11 x 7-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Spread salsa over tortillas; sprinkle with cheese. Cover and bake at 350° for 20 minutes or until thoroughly heated.
Kitchen Notes
Half of the beans are finely chopped to give the filling a thick, creamy consistency. This dish can be made up to 8 hours in advance and chilled; just bring it back to room temperature before baking.

This recipe is a great weeknight recipe. We made it exactly as the recipe stated and it was good. It wasn't worthy of serving company or for a special occassion so I only gave it 3 stars. I would heat it longer and double the recipe next time. The center of some burritos was just warm, not hot, and there was not much leftover and we like to eat leftovers.08/12/10

Good weeknight recipe--but not worthy of a special occasion. I added prepared chicken strips (fajita style) and shredded four-cheese mexican style to the burrito mixture. Used additional mexican cheese for top to bake. I used fresh salsa from the produce section, which made a difference. Good recipe with just the right amount of spice for kids.08/06/10
