Fresh, hearty, and loaded with vibrant vegetables, this Burrito de Verduras is the perfect healthy meal you'll crave tonight!

1

Start by cooking the brown rice. In a medium pot, combine 1 cup of brown rice with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to low and cover. Let it cook for about 20 minutes until all water is absorbed.

2

While the rice is cooking, rinse and drain the black beans. Set aside.

3

Dice the bell pepper and zucchini into small pieces. In a large skillet over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil. Once hot, add the bell pepper and zucchini. Sauté for about 7-8 minutes until they're tender.

4

Add the corn and black beans to the skillet. Stir everything together and cook for an additional 5 minutes until heated through.

5

Once the rice is done, fluff it with a fork and add it to the skillet. Mix well to combine all ingredients. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

6

Warm the tortillas in a separate pan for about 1-2 minutes on each side until soft and pliable.

7

To assemble the burritos, place a generous amount of the veggie filling onto each tortilla. Top with sliced avocado, chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.

8

Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up from the bottom. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

9

Serve with sour cream on the side and enjoy your homemade Burrito de Verduras!
