FRANCES COPPA' S BEAN BURRITOS

10 to 15 large flour tortillas
6 cans assorted beans (black, pinto, navy, kidney, garabanzo etc.) drained
2 cans original rotel tomatoes plus 1 or 2 cans water
1 can corn (drained)
1 med. onion (chopped)
2 cups shredded  cheddar cheese
10 to 15 slices cheese (cheddar or muenster)

Combine beans, tomatoes, water and corn in heavy skillet.  Simmer until well cooked and liquid has almost completely reduced. Remove from heat and stir in onion and shredded cheddar.

Heat tortilla individually in microwave about 15 seconds.  Place about 3/4 cup of bean mixture on top and flatten until approximately the size of a cheese slice.  Turn in sides and roll into a little package.   When all are filled, place a slice of cheese on each and bake for 30 minutes in 350 degree oven.

They are great to eat right away or may be cooled and wrapped individually and frozen.  Re-heat in microwave for a great lunch.  Serve with salad.  My family likes to eat them with "Tiger Sauce".
