Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cooked brown rice, warm or at room temperature
  • 1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 green onion, finely sliced (white and green parts)
  • 1/2 red or green pepper, diced
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • juice of 1 lime
  • 1/2 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 12 cups shredded cheese (I used a combination of Monterrey jack and sharp cheddar–and I don’t measure I just sprinkle it on)
  • 6 medium tortillas (try these whole wheat tortillas here if you’re in the mood to make your own)

My Favorite Guacamole

  • 2 avocados, mashed
  • 1 jalapeno minced
  • 1/4 cup cilantro leaves, chopped
  • 1 small tomato diced
  • kosher salt to taste
  • squeeze of a lemon
  • Mix together and enjoy!

Instructions

  1. Mix rice together with chili powder, cumin and garlic salt.
  2. Add remaining ingredients except for cheese
  3. Sprinkle cheese over tortillas, leaving 1/2-inch border around edges, then arrange rice mixture down the center of each tortilla. Roll stuffed tortillas, leaving edges open.
  4. Spray the tortillas cooking spray or brush lightly with olive oil.
  5. Heat a large non-stick skillet (or panini maker) over medium heat for 1 minute. Arrange 2 wraps, seam-side down, in pan and cook until golden brown and crisp, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  6. Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining wraps.
  7. Serve with salsa or my favorite, homemade Guacamole–yum!
