Ingredients

• 4 pieces Whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas
• 1.5 cups Cooked black beans
• 1 cup Cooked brown rice
• 1 medium Red bell pepper, diced
• 1 medium Zucchini, diced
• 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
• 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 large Avocado, sliced
• 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
• 1 large Lime, cut into wedges
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.

Step 3

Stir in the diced red bell pepper and zucchini. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

Step 4

Add the cooked black beans, cooked brown rice, cumin, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir well to combine and heat through for about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.

Step 5

Warm the tortillas on a dry skillet for 30 seconds on each side or microwave them for a few seconds to make them pliable.

Step 6

Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon a portion of the black bean and vegetable filling into the center.

Step 7

Top the filling with sliced avocado, chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.

Step 8

Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to form a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.

Step 9

Serve immediately with extra lime wedges on the side or wrap in foil for a grab-and-go meal.
