bean and cheese burritos

This is a simple, delicious and frugal recipe to try. Also you can freeze these and use them for lunches or dinner. Maybe add some eggs to them for a quick breakfast.

• A bag of dried pinto beans
• tortilla shells
• cheese

Rinse the beans and pick out the broken ones. Place them in a crock-pot and cover them with water. 

 Add garlic, bay leaves and cumin to flavor

Cook on low overnight

Drain some of the water but leave some in and mash the beans with a masher

Scoop beans onto shells and add shredded cheese on top of the beans

Roll the tortillas into burritos

At this point you can choose to freeze them in a freezer bag or cook them

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Place burritos on cookie sheet

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes


My kids loved these and we will have  often for our home-school lunches and may also try some breakfast ones :)

12 week Announcement!

I have not posted in awhile, of course I have been busy growing a new addition to our family due January 13, 2015. I praise Yahweh for this gift! I am now 12 weeks and we feel very blessed and excited. Our only daughter prayed for a sister so we will see what Yah's will is!
3. "Lo, children are an heritage of the Yahweh: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
⁴ As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.
⁵ Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate."  Psalm 127:3-5

I also have been busy planning our home-school for all our younger kids, I plan on posting on this in the future. I praise Yahweh  for this also because I would not be able to do this with our his help.
