Transfer bean mixture to a bowl. Stir black beans and 1/4 cup tomatoes into bean mixture.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

Place a tortilla in the hot oil. Spread about 1/4 cup filling onto the tortilla.

Place another tortilla on top of filling; cook until filling is warmed, about 10 minutes.
