Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• In a large sauce pan over medium heat, saute onion and garlic in oil until soft.
• Add beans, chilies and seasonings. Mix and mash the beans somewhat to the desired consistency.
• Remove from heat; spread beans, cheese and salsa in the middle of each tortilla. (I use about 2/3 cup beans and about 1/4 cup cheese per tortilla so they roll up nicely).
• Roll up tortillas and place in 7 x 11 or 9 x 13 ovenproof casserole dish, lightly sprayed with oil.
• Cover with foil and bake at 350F for 15 minutes. Serve.
• NOTE: I put additional salsa and cheese on top before baking ~ we like our burritos extra cheesy!

PINTO BEANS FOR BURRITOS

Steps:

• Sort the beans to make sure there are no small rocks, screws, etc. in them. And yes, I have personally found these things in dried beans before. Sort or hope you have good dental coverage.
• Put the beans, all the spices, and the olive oil in a large pot. Mix well.
• Add the chicken broth and water, and stir to mix well.
• Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer. Cook beans, uncovered, for 3 to 4 hours until done to your liking (It usually only takes me 3 hours, and sometimes less than 3 if I have it at a fast simmer. After 2 hours, take out a bean every 30 minutes or so and eat it to check if it is done enough for you).

• Cover pinto beans with water in a large bowl. Soak beans for 4 hours, changing water every 30 to 45 minutes. Drain.

• Remove ham hock from beans; cut meat from the bone, chop the ham, and return to pot.
• Stir tomato sauce and brown sugar into the beans. Continue to simmer until beans are tender and flavors are blended, about 1 more hour.
