Cook 2 cups beans (pintos and/or black) per Homestead Basic Beans. Refrigerate overnight. 2. Drain beans, reserving liquid. Put beans in a bowl, add 1/2 c reserved liquid. Process with a handmixer until beans are completely pureed. Add 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp chile powder, and ground hot peppers to taste. Mix spices in well. Freeze remaining liquid for future use as a soup base. 3. Sauté 1 cup chopped onion, 1 cup chopped green pepper, and diced jalapeno peppers in olive oil. 4. Add bean mixture to sautéd vegetables, and heat mixture thoroughly. 5. Warm a tortilla by toasting it on both sides in a pan on low-medium heat. 6. Coat the middle third of tortilla with bean mix, leaving about 2" of space at the top and bottom. Top with shredded cheese. Wrap the tortilla by folding the top and bottom towards the center and then folding the sides across. These burritos freeze well, so you can make a double recipe and freeze half.
