Bean Burrito Filling

Sometimes when it comes to dinner, I either feel like I have to do something new, original and amazing or just give up entirely.  This recipe is a happy medium between the two because although it's not at all new or original, it's still amazing and requires only a little more effort than nothing.  We use this bean filling for burritos, nachos, taquitos, tostadas, and anything else that sounds good.  It makes for a quick dinner we all love!
