Ingredients

4 Whole Wheat Tortillas
1 can Black Beans
10 - 12 Canned Artichoke Pieces (each cut into 4 pieces)
20 Cherry Tomatoes (small ones used for salad)
1 can Black Olives (each cut into 2 pieces)
1 can Fire-roasted Mild Mexican Green Chillies (small can)
1 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Mexican Chili Powder
1 cup Sour Cream
2 tablespoons Olive or Avocado Oil
2 cups Grated Mexican or Cheddar Jack Cheese

Optional

1/4 cup Raisins

Directions

Step 1
Place a medium non-stick frying pan on medium heat.
Step 2
Add oil, then tomatoes. When tomatoes look a little fried, add raisins and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir-fry for a couple of minutes.
Step 3
Add artichokes, olives, black beans, canned green chilies, 1/2 teaspoon salt and chili powder. Cook for 5 minutes. Lower heat to simmer.
Step 4
Heat up one tortilla, either in the microwave oven (for 20 to 30 seconds) or in a skillet on the stove. Do not overheat the tortilla. When done, the tortilla should be soft and warm, but not rough or dried up.
Step 5
Place the tortilla on a plate. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of grated cheese. Place 2 tablespoons of the mix in one edge of the tortilla. Roll as tightly as possible.
Step 6
Heat the burrito in the microwave for 20 seconds. Place the burrito on a serving platter.
Step 7
Repeat steps 5 through 6 for the rest of the tortillas.
Step 8
Serve the Burrito hot with guacamole and sour cream on the side.
