   4      10 inch       flour tortillas -- * see note
     1/2  cup           onion -- chopped
   2      cloves        garlic -- minced
   1      tbsp          vegetable oil
     1/2  tsp           ground cumin
   1      tsp           chile powder
     1/2  cup           red bell pepper -- chopped
     1/2  cup           green bell pepper -- chopped
   1                    fresh chile -- chopped
   1                    carrot -- coarsely chopped
   1 3/4  cups          black beans -- cooked
     1/2  cup           canned tomato -- diced
                        salt and pepper -- to taste
     1/2  cup           Monterey jack cheese -- shredded
     1/2  cup           sour cream or plain yogurt
     1/4  cup           cilantro leaves
                        Garnish:
                        reduced fat sour cream
                        cilantro -- chopped
                        fresh chiles -- chopped

Preheat oven to 350°F. Wrap the tortillas in foil and place in oven until
heated, about 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, combine onions, garlic and oil in a large nonstick skillet. Cook,
stirring over low heat until the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Add
the cumin and chile powder; cook for 30 sec. Add peppers, carrots and cook,
stirring, for 5 minutes. Add the beans, tomato, fresh chile, salt and
pepper. Cook, stirring, until the flavors are blended, about 10 minutes.
Remove from the heat. Stir in the cheese.

Line up the tortillas on a flat surface. Place a spoonful of veggie mixture
in the center of each, dividing evenly. Top each with a spoonful of sour
cream or yogurt and a few cilantro leaves.

Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, forming a square, and roll
up. Serve warm.

Garnish with cilantro, sour cream and chiles.
