Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
In a bowl, mix the refried beans, black beans, cilantro, and spices. Then add the zest from the lime and the juice from half of the lime and stir. Mix in the cheese.
Working 3 tortillas at a time, stack them on a microwave-safe plate and cover with plastic wrap. Cook 30 seconds, or until tortillas are soft and pliable. Put about two tablespoons of filling lengthwise into a tortilla. Spread it out into a strip and roll up the tortilla around it. Place it seam side down on a baking sheet. Repeat with all of the tortillas*.
Lightly spray the tortillas with cooking spray and immediately sprinkle with sea salt. Bake until the edges are golden brown (it took mine about 10 minutes). Eat warm with sour cream, guacamole, and salsa for dipping.

*Stop here to freeze. Roll up each individually in foil, place in ziplock bag and put in freezer. Cook by following remaining directions. (No thawing necessary.)
