Ingredients:
3 cups black beans (amount after cooking and draining) or 3 cups no-salt-added black beans ( canned, rinsed and drained)
3 cups cooked brown rice
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 onions, diced
2 bell peppers, diced ( red, orange, or yellow)
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic cloves
1 tablespoon ground cumin
10 cremini mushrooms or 10 button mushrooms, sliced
2 tomatoes, diced
1/2 cup salsa ( no-salt-added, if you can find it)
pepper, to taste
hot sauce, to taste ( low sodium, such as Jake & Amos)
salt (optional) or tamari, to taste (optional)
12 lavash bread (make sure the tortillas are lard-free) or 12 wheat flour tortillas ( make sure the tortillas are lard-free)
Directions:
Soak beans overnight, if using dried.
Cook beans, if using dried.
Cook brown rice.
Heat water and oil in a large saucepan.
When hot, add onion and saute until soft.
Add bell pepper, garlic, and cumin and cook 2 minutes more, adding more water, if necessary to prevent sticking.
Stir in beans, mushrooms, tomatoes, and salsa.
Cook about 10 minutes, until mushrooms are soft.
Warm the amount of lavash breads or tortillas you are using.
Add rice and pepper, hot sauce, and salt or tamari (if using).
Spoon onto the lavash or tortilla, allowing room for rolling into the burrito shape.
