These grilled bean and cheese burritos are the ultimate easy vegetarian dinner! Open a can of pinto beans, add some salsa, avocado, and cheese, and grill to perfection. Kid friendly and grown up approved.
On one tortilla, smash half an avocado in the center. Pile one quarter of the beans, salsa, and cheese in a line down the center of the tortilla. Fold up the bottom, then fold in the sides, and roll the burrito tightly up from the bottom.
Open the panini press and drizzle the bottom plate lightly with olive oil. Place the wrapped burrito seam side down on the panini press, drizzle the top with olive oil, and close the cover. Repeat with remaining tortillas, grilling in batches as needed.
Grill burritos for 4-6 minutes or until the outside is brown and crisp and the inside is hot. Watch carefully to prevent overcooking which can cause the filling to leak.
