Directions

Step 1

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.

Step 2

Add diced bell pepper and red onion to the skillet. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until softened.

Step 3

Add black beans to the skillet and season with cumin, paprika, chili powder, and salt. Stir to combine and cook for 2-3 minutes, just until heated through. Remove from heat.

Step 4

Warm the whole wheat tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave to make them pliable.

Assemble the burritos: Start by layering 1/2 cup of cooked brown rice on each tortilla.

Step 6

Top the rice with the sautéed bean and vegetable mixture.

Step 7

Add slices of avocado, a sprinkle of fresh cilantro, and a drizzle of fresh lime juice over the top.

Step 8

If using salsa, spoon 1-2 tablespoons (or desired amount) onto the filling.

Step 9

Roll the tortilla tightly to form a burrito, folding in the sides as you roll.

Step 10

Serve immediately or wrap in foil for an on-the-go meal.
