Dollar Budget Eating: Cream Cheese Bean Burritos

Babies are expensive. So is college. People joke about the college years and living off of Ramen and PB and J, but the truth is, it doesn't have to be that way! These burritos can be made in the microwave as well as on the stove

What You'll Need:
8oz Cream Cheese (I use Chive and Green Onion)
2 cans of Re-fried  Beans
Shredded Cheese
Tortillas

Step 1: Empty cream cheese and beans into a microwave safe dish.

Step 2: Microwave 2 minutes, Stirring until cream cheese is mixed in fully.

Step 3: Spoon bean mixture into a tortilla add cheese, and roll up.

Step 4: Enjoy!

These are delicious! However this recipe makes a TON! So you can have leftovers, or pre-make these and roll the burritos up individually in tin foil, or plastic wrap and freeze them.

If you are really rich, you can add salsa, sour cream, Guacamole, or your other favorite burrito topping.
