Maya's Bean Burritos (serves 2 - 3)

Hello everyone! (Everyone who reads this blog, anyway).

SOO after coming back from my Hot Yoga class at Bikram's, I was pretty hungry and before I left for school this morning, I gave my maid a recipe I came up with about a month ago and told her to make it for me for dinner when I got back.
So, since it's my first ever original recipe (apart from my pistachio and raisin addition to the pre-existing 'Cran-Nut Blondies', which I believe made it way more delish) and it is my first original recipe that is NOT a baked goodie (since I believe my forte lies in baking).
So I've decided to share this little recipe with you. It might not sound that original but I'm pretty sure it's never been made this tasty or kickass before (: What makes it even better is that it is EASY to prepare and you can get all the ingredients (or similar ones) at ANY supermarket.
So here goes!

Ingredients:
- 1 can of 'Sloppy Joe' (The tomato puree stuff that goes with juicy burgers, that I don't eat anymore)
- 1 can of 'Rosarita Vegetarian Refried Beans'
- 'Doritos TM Burrito Tortilla bread' (comes in fives, the one I bought, anyway)
- 1 block (the actual size is totally up to you) of Mozarella and 1 block of Cheddar Cheese/pre-shredded Mozarella and Cheddar Cheese in a packet
- 2 Onions
- 2 Capsicums (optional)
- Garlic (optional - recommended for adding to flavour)
- Any other vegetables you like (tomatoes etc. - although not very necessary as Sloppy Joe is full of it)

Method:
1)
Slice the onions, do NOT dice them (the ring shape should be formed and should be relatively big. Half the size of onion rings)
2) Dice capsicums
3) Dice garlic
4) Slice/Dice all and any other veggies you have decided to add
5) Using about 2 - 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil, fry Onions and Garlic (ONLY) for about 2 - 3 minutes till golden-brownish colour appears
6) Remove and strain
7) Mix fried onions and garlic with Sloppy Joe and Refried Beans
8) Pour and spread mixture evenly over each tortilla
9) Add additional vegetables (if any) and both grated cheeses over everything, then fold tortilla wrap in half
10) Finally, bake the tortillas (preferably 2 by 2) in an oven/microwave oven until the cheese melts and becomes BROWN (around 10 mins on High - Heat)

VOILA!

Bon Apetit!
