Excellent recipe! I "fried" the quesadillas after filling them in olive oil Pam just to crisp them up a little. I also added sliced avocado. Fast, easy, great meal!

We really liked these! Like other reviewers said, the smokiness of the chipotles was really nice! It was really quick and nice for a meal with pantry items! Thanks!

Wonderful burritos! I love the smokiness the chipotles added. I also added some grilled chicken breast into the burritos. Thanks Geema!

Fabulous! I had these with the addition of onions and peppers as suggested, with guacamole!!! I used very little cilantro as im not a huge fan of it in large quantities ;-) These are just fabulous though. Loved the addition of cumin and the chipotle in adobo! I was very happy with my meal! :-) Thanks geema!

A very easy and quick meal to prepare. Great for when you`re short on time. Next time I`ll saute onions, garlic and peppers then add to the beans.
