Vege Burrito

Burrito is one of my favorite Mexican dish. It is a whole meal wrapped up in a tortilla. My kids love to take it to school for lunch. Even my mom likes it. I make it a few different ways. Today, I made it simple.

Ingredients:
5 large tortilla, burrito size
1 small onion, chopped
few cherry tomatoes, cut in half
1 jalapeno pepper, sliced
1 can pinto beans, or black beans, drained
1 T taco seasoning
1/2 C cooked rice, mixed with chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 C guacamole
1/2 C salsa
1/2 C shredded lettuce
1/2 C shredded Mexican cheese
1/2 C sour cream
hot sauce(optional)

Method:
1. Mix taco seasoning to beans and heat it in microwave
2. Mix onion, tomato, and pepper in a bowl. Add a little salt, lemon juice and gently mix.
3. Warm the tortilla in the microwave.
4. Set all the ingredients on the table. Let everyone build their own burrito.
5. Spread sour cream on the tortilla.Spread hot sauce on it . Layer it with rice in the center. Followed by beans, onion mixture, salsa, guacamole, lettuce and top it with cheese. Fold tortilla tightly to partially enclose the ingredients, tuck in the ends and  complete the rolling.
