Best Brown Rice And Bean Burrito Recipes

BROWN RICE AND BEAN BURRITO

Steps:

• If the cooked rice is cold, reheat it in the microwave. When hot, mix in the Cheddar until the cheese melts. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
• Mash the avocado and lime juice together in a small bowl with a fork until it becomes a spreadable consistency.
• Lay the tortilla out on a cutting board. Spread the mashed avocado on the tortilla, leaving a 1-inch outer border without any avocado. In the bottom third of the tortilla, lay out in a log shape the rice, beans, carrots and salsa. Roll over once tightly, then tuck in the sides and continue rolling. The avocado should help the burrito stay together. Cut in half. Wrap in a paper towel, followed by a layer of aluminum foil. Serve at room temperature.

BROWN RICE AND BEAN BURRITO

Steps:

• Rinse the pinto beans and bring them to the boil on a medium heat before reducing the heat and leaving them to simmer for 60 minutes until soft.
• At the same time, boil the brown rice and then leave to simmer for 40-50 minutes until cooked.
• While waiting for the beans and rice, finely dice the garlic, onions and peppers.
• Heat the oil in a large pan and add the garlic and onions, keeping the heat low until they have softened before adding the peppers and leaving for another 5 minutes.
• Strain the black beans and add them to the pan along with the canned tomatoes.
• When cooked, add the pinto beans to the mixture (turn off the heat on the onion mixture and wait until the pinto beans and rice are ready if they are not already to avoid frying), followed by the rice and mix thoroughly.
• Add the cumin, paprika and chilli powder to the mixture and season to taste.
• Warm the tortillas according to instructions on the packet. Divide both the grated cheese and the burrito mixture between each tortilla and wrap them up.
• Serve with the sour cream, guacamole and salsa.
