    Add the onion to the skillet with the chorizo's remaining fat. Sauté until translucent (about 4 minutes). Return the chorizo ​​to the skillet. Add the can of pinto beans to the mixture. Continue cooking for about 5 minutes, then turn off the heat. Cover and keep warm.

  3. Heat a large grill surface over medium heat. Heat the tortillas, one at a time, in batches until soft and pliable, about 1 minute per side. Spoon 1/4 cup of the warm bean filling into the center of each tortilla, spreading out to the edges. Top with 2-3 heaping tablespoons of the cauliflower mixture and 2 tablespoons of cheese. Fold the edges in and roll them up to form a burrito. Return to the grill to melt the cheese, about 10 seconds. Serve warm.
