  • Total Time: 0 hours
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 2 cups baby spinach, roughly chopped
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 1 cup frozen riced cauliflower
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 cup jarred tomato salsa
  • 15.5 ounce can low-sodium black beans, or pinto beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup finely shredded mexican blend cheese, divided
  • 6 burrito-sized tortillas

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add ground beef and cook until browned and crumbled, about 6 minutes; drain excess fat.
  3. Mix in corn, spinach, and riced cauliflower, cooking until softened, 3 to 4 minutes.
  4. Season with salt, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, and cumin; cook for 1 minute.
  5. Reduce heat to medium and stir in salsa and beans; cook until mostly dry, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  6. Adjust seasoning if needed after tasting the mixture.
  7. Warm tortillas in a damp paper towel in the microwave for 15–20 seconds.
  8. Lay out warmed tortillas and distribute the beef and bean mixture evenly, topping with cheese.
  9. Fold the bottom edge of the tortilla over filling, tuck in sides, and roll to form a tight burrito; place seam-side down on a baking sheet.
  10. Clean the skillet, spray with oil, and cook burritos until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.
  11. Serve immediately or wrap in foil for storage; refrigerate for up to 4 days or freeze for 2 months; reheat as needed.
