Black Bean Burritos

I got this recipe off of allrecipes.com.  I was looking for a good bean burrito recipe I could make and wrap in tin foil to bring to my daughter's softball game.  I hate eating so early before her games but we don't get home afterwards until 8pm.  We have been eating way too much fast food lately too.  I changed the recipe a little so if you want to see the original, look it up!     Delicious Black Bean Burritos   Rated: Submitted By: jessie Photo By: MesaMa Prep Time: 10 Minutes Cook Time: 15 Minutes Ready In: 25 Minutes Servings: 4 "Onions, bell peppers and jalapenos are heated in a skillet.
