Naked Burrito


Brown rice

ONE
1 tsp olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced or pressed
1 sweet potato, diced
TWO
1 can black beans
a dash of cinnamon
a dash of cumin
1 package seitan
fresh cilantro, chopped, lots of it
salt, to taste
THREE
fresh fruit (pear, pinneaple, banana, or apple)

PICO DE GALLO
4 tomatoes, diced
1 onion, diced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
2 jalapeno peppers
juice of 1 lime
salt, to taste

In a wok or saucepan, sauté the garlic and potatoes for a couple of minutes. Add a little water and simmer, covered, until the potatoes are tender. Add the ingredients in TWO and a little more water, if necessary. Once all the ingredients are heated up, add the fruit.

To make the Pico de Gallo, mix all the ingredients in a bowl and add a little water. Let it set for a few hours.

In a bowl, put a serving of brown rice, a serving of the potato/bean mixture and top with pico de gallo. Serve with your favorite salsa or salsa verde.

  1. Of course you can dress up this burrito wrapping it in a whole wheat tortilla!
