Vegetable Burritos (pepper, onions, mushroom, clove)

[lubby]

2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
1 cup chopped green zuchinni
1/2 cup chopped onions red or white
1 garlic clove chopped
1 red bell pepper sliced into small strips
6 8 inch whole wheat flour tortillas but you can use bigger ones
2 cups shredded cheddar divided ( I used reduced fat)
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 can dark red kidney beans rinsed and drained
1 small can sliced black olives
1 cup light sour cream
3/4 salsa divided

Coat a large non stick skillet with olive oil and add mushrooms, zucchini, peppers, onions and garlic. Cook on medium high heat until tender. Add beans, olives and a pinch of salt. cook for 4 more minutes.

Spoon about 1/3 cup or more down the center of the tortilla. Depending on the size of tortilla you may need less so you can roll and fold it.add 1 tbsp of salsa, 1 tbsp of sour cream and 3 Tbsp of cheese on top. Fold like you would a burrito and place in fry pan coated with non stick spray seam side down over medium high heat and cook for about 2 minutes, then flip over and cook another 2 minutes. You can kick it up a notch by adding hot sauce or any hot peppers you like. I like mine mild.

I love veggie burritos.

That sounds wonderful, though I think I'd use a can of black beans rather than kidney beans. My spouse makes black bean burritos occasionally (he hasn't in quite a while, though -- hint, hint) and we really enjoy those. The additions you list sound as though they'd add a whole lot of interest and flavor complexity. Thanks for sharing!

You are very welcome. I suggest you try and make these and let me know what you think.
