Vegetarian burritos are a delicious and satisfying meal option, packed with flavorful ingredients and perfect for those following a vegetarian diet or simply looking for a meatless meal. Here's a recipe for delicious vegetarian burritos.
Ingredients: For the filling: – 1 tablespoon olive oil – 1 small onion, diced – 2 cloves garlic, minced – 1 bell pepper (any color), diced – 1 cup cooked black beans (canned or homemade) – 1 cup cooked rice (white or brown) – 1 cup corn kernels (fresh, canned, or frozen) – 1 teaspoon ground cumin – 1 teaspoon chili powder – Salt and pepper to taste – 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro – Juice of 1 lime
For assembling: – Large flour tortilla – Shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or your choice) – Salsa – Guacamole or sliced avocado – Sour cream or Greek yogurt – Additional toppings as desired
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and diced bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the bell pepper is slightly softened.
Stir in the cooked black beans, cooked rice, and corn kernels. Season with ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is heated through and well combined.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the chopped fresh cilantro and lime juice. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Warm the flour tortillas in the microwave or on a skillet for a few seconds to make them pliable. To assemble the vegetarian burritos, spoon a portion of the filling onto the center of each tortilla. Top with shredded cheese, salsa, guacamole or sliced avocado, sour cream or Greek yogurt, and any additional toppings you like.
Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to enclose the filling completely. Serve the vegetarian burritos immediately, or wrap them in foil to keep warm until ready to serve.
These vegetarian burritos are customizable, allowing you to add your favorite ingredients and toppings to suit your taste preferences. They make a perfect lunch or dinner option and are sure to be a hit with vegetarians and meat-eaters alike!
