How To Make bean and mushroom burritos

  • Step 1
    Prep your veggies, beans and rice. Chop the mushrooms into large pieces - they will add a nice "meaty" texture to the burrito. To make this a really quick meal, use the microwave packs of brown rice, such as Uncle Ben's or other brand.
  • Step 2
    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Step 3
    Add onion and bell pepper. Cook until just tender.
  • Step 4
    Add beans and tomatoes. Heat through.
  • Step 5
    Add mushrooms. Heat until they are just warm and slightly soft. You don't want them to cook too long or shrink too much.
  • Step 6
    In a microwave-safe bowl, warm enchilada sauce for 1 - 1 1/2 minutes in microwave.
  • Step 7
    Warm tortillas in microwave for 10 - 20 seconds or until pliable.
  • Step 8
    Place tortilla on plate.
  • Step 9
    Scoop 1/2 cup of rice down center of tortilla.
  • Step 10
    Scoop 1/4 of bean and mushroom mixture on top of rice.
  • Step 11
    Roll one side of tortilla over filling, tuck in the sides and roll over again (seam-side down) to make burrito.
  • Step 12
    Top with enchilada sauce and shredded cheese.
  • Step 13
    Can be put in microwave for 30 - 45 seconds to melt cheese if necessary.
