Preparation

  1. Heat oven to 375°F.
  2. Spread 1/4 cup of the beans onto each tortilla just below center. Sprinkle heaping 1/2 teaspoon chopped onion and 2 tablespoons cheese over beans on each tortilla.
  3. Roll up each tortilla tightly to secure filling. (Fold bottom of each tortilla 1 inch over filling. Fold sides in, overlapping to enclose filling. Fold top over sides.) Place seam-side down on ungreased large cookie sheet.
  4. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until heated through. Serve with Toppings.
