Servings 4 burritos
Calories 480kcal
Ingredients
- 2 cups chicken fajita recipe
- 1 cup shredded Mexican-style cheese blend, store-bought
- 1 cup refried black beans or refried beans for photos you can use my recipe or just plain black beans (smashed a little bit).
- 1 cup Mexican Rice or Cilantro Lime Rice
- 1 cup pico de gallo
- 1 cup guacamole optional
Instructions
- Place a tortilla in a large skillet set over medium heat, warming it until it is heated through and lightly browned in spots, about 1 minute. Turn the tortilla over and warm it on the second side, 1 minute more.
- Transfer the tortilla to a plate and cover it with a kitchen towel to keep it warm. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
- Lay the tortillas out on your work surface. Spread ½ cup of the Chicken Fajita recipe in a straight line across the center of each tortilla. Layer ¼ cup of the cheese, ¼ cup of the black beans, ¼ cup of the rice, ¼ cup of pico de gallo and guacamole (if using) on top of the chicken.
- Fold the left and right sides of each tortilla in by 1 inch. Grab the bottom of the tortilla and roll it away from you, ensuring the sides are tucked in. Serve with any other salsas you like or the guacamole on the side.
Notes
If you don't want to make everything from scratch, you can buy some of the rice premade or beans. just make it look like my recipes lol!
Nutrition Facts: To make it under 500 calories, swap to lean chicken breast (less fat, fewer calories) and slightly reducing the cheese portion, which is realistic for a burrito that still tastes great without going overboard. With guacamole still adds ~120 kcal and 10g fat if included.
