Vegetarian Burritos

Day 6

Finally! Burrito night. I loooove burritos. Or, any Mexican food.

Vegetarian burritos

Beans & Rice

Last night we cooked about 4 or 5 cups of pinto beans. We fried them with onions and garlic tonight and added some green chilies. We also made about 3 cups of brown rice.

Beans, chilies, garlic and onions

Bean Mixture
  • 4 or 5 Cups Pinto Beans
  • Onions, minced
  • Garlic, minced
  • 2 Cans of Green Chilies
  • 1.5 Cups Water or Vegetable Broth
  • 1Tsp Salt
Rice

Salsa Fresca

This is a nice fresh, raw salsa, usually made with lime to give it some kick. Probably pretty healthy.
Salsa Fresca

Laura made the salsa fresca using the following:
  • 2 Tomatoes
  • 4 Avocados
  • 1/2 yellow pepper
  • 1/2 red pepper
  • 1 Lemon (we didn't have a lime on hand)
  • Garlic
  • Cumin
  • Sea salt
  • Pepper
I helped. I chopped a tomato.

Wrap it Up

Compliments and FlatOut tortilla wraps
  1. Place a wrap on a plate.We used Original FlatOut flatbread. Great for wrapping because of its oblong shape. Get more stuff in there :)
  2. Add a dollop of refried beans. Then another.
  3. Add a dollop of rice.
  4. Sprinkle a bit of shredded cheddar.
  5. Wrap it.
  6. Spoon some salsa fresca on top.
  7. Chow down.

Voila! Burrito Extraordinaire

Make it Vegan

Skip the cheddar! Everything else is plant based.
