My Old Standby: Quinoa Bean Burritos
You know, I've made these burritos quite a lot in the past few months! I've posted about them here and here and I know I've made them plenty other times without bothering to post. I'd like to call it my old standby. It makes a lot and keeps well for meals throughout the week, or in this case, weekend. I've posted the recipe here. Feel free to change up the beans or veggies. I used red and green bell peppers, zucchini and spinach today because that's what I had in the fridge. I also switched the beans to kidney instead of black. I like to make them "enchilada" style by covering them in a chipotle tomato sauce with vegenaise drizzle. They would also be great with melted vegan cheese on top along with guacamole and dairy free sour cream.

Your mexican food posts almost make me hungry!
ReplyDeleteShannon has been looking for a good alternative to just plain bean burritoes. YAY I found a good link to show her. She'll be very impressed.
ReplyDeleteHer Burritoes usually consist of avacadoes, tomatoes, onions, salad reminents from the night before-haha-she cheats, maybe rice, and I don't know what else.
Thanks for the awesome fixture. Keep on cooking!

Yum, that looks so delicious; wonderful comfort food!
ReplyDeleteI made these the other night and they were awesome! There was enough filling for 8-10 good sized enchilladas, so we ate them for 3 days. I also doubled the sauce. Thanks for the great recipe!
