Cilantro Black Bean Tortilla Roll Ups {Quick Appetizer Recipe} #15MinuteSuppers

Friday, May 30, 2014 by Lolli 17 Comments

 

This week, the 15 Minute Supper bloggers were challenged to come up with a quick appetizer that could be made in 15 minutes or less….and I was almost stumped. Honestly, I was just busy. And feeling uninspired.

At the last minute, I decided to consult my family recipe book, compiled by one of my Aunts years ago, to see if anyone in my extended family happened to have an easy appetizer that I could make and share. My Aunt Connie pulled through for me, and although I changed around more than a few of the ingredients on her recipe, I owe the inspiration for these cilantro black bean tortilla roll ups to her.

These tortilla roll ups couldn’t be much easier. I just threw everything into my blender (cheese included) to make the cheesy black bean spread. No chopping of ingredients needed!

I love that these tortilla roll ups are an easy and quick savory alternative to bring to a party. Because they’re full of beans and cheese, they’ll be nicely filling, too. I can’t wait for my next get-together now!

    I’m always looking for new uses for beans in cooking because they are so economical, healthy and fiber filling! This was genius and I will use this for Mexican night! Thanks so much for the recipe!
