Make-Ahead Pinto Bean Burritos

I was inspired by this post, so I attempted my version this weekend.  I get the husband seal of approval on these.

1 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 cup diced onion
1 can pinto beans, drained
1 can black beans, drained
1 can roasted green chiles, drained
1/4 tsp each chipotle powder and ancho chili powder
1/4 cup salsa

Heat the olive oil over medium heat.  Add the onion and cook for 3-5 minutes.  Add everything else, stir to heat through.  Use a potato masher or stick blender to partially puree the mixture.  Remove from heat.

1/2 tube soyrizo, crumbled
1/2 bunch cilantro, minced

Add to the bean mixture and stir to incorporate.

8 tortillas
shredded cheddar cheese
nonfat plain Greek yogurt (optional)

Heap a little of the bean mixture in the tortilla.  Top with cheese and yogurt.  Roll the tortillas up, wrap in foil and heat at 400 degrees for 15 minutes right away or freeze.
