Love this Recipe!

Just a quick post tonight to share one of my

Favorite,

 Very Quick,

Healthy,

recipes.

This one is from Taste of Home where pretty much every recipe is amazing.


Bean and Rice Burritos

2 cups cooked brown rice (2 cups water + 1 cup rice makes a little more than what you need.)
 1 medium green pepper, diced
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 Tablespoon (yes Tablespoon) chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
dash of cayenne pepper (if you like things hot)
1 Can (15 oz.) black beans, drained and rinsed
8 whole wheat flour tortillas, warmed

In a large skillet, saute green pepper and onion in oil for about 4 minutes. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in chili powder, cumin, pepper flakes, and cayenne pepper(if desired)until combined. Add beans and rice; cook and stir for 4-6 minutes or until heated through.



















Spoon about 1/2 cup of filling down center of each tortilla; top with salsa, sour cream, and/or cheese. Fold in sides and ends and roll up.



















If you cook your rice ahead of time, this meal literally takes less than 15 minutes from start to finish.

And it is yummo....as Rachel Ray would say.
