So the last little while I've been looking for recipes that encompass healthy eating and amazing flavor. Last night I hit pay dirt!! This is my new favorite food. Here's the recipe:
1 medium sweet red or green pepper
1 C sliced fresh mushrooms
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 T olive oil
2 C cooked brown rice
1 can (16 oz) kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1 C corn
1/4 C chopped green onions
1/2 tsp. ground cumin
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1/4 tsp. salt
6 flour tortillas (8 inch) warmed
1/2 C cheddar cheese
3/4 C salsa
In a large nonstick skillet, saute the peppers, mushrooms and garlic in the olive oil until tender. Add the rest of the ingredients and cook for an additional 5 minutes or so until all is heated through. Spoon 3/4 C onto each tortilla. Sprinkle with cheese; drizzle with salsa. Fold tortilla and serve immediately!!
I ate three the first time I made them. They were too good!! I also froze the leftovers to see if it would work. I'll let you know!!
These come out of the freezer beautifully and are really good on multi-grain tortillas instead. I thawed the mix in the microwave then hit the frying pan one more time and they were great as leftovers. I think I'll make a triple batch and freeze tons!!
