Crispy Southwest Wraps with Salsa and Guacamole
I got this recipe from sisterscafe.blogspot.com I thought it turned out well, and my kids liked it too. The Salsa recipe I got from a friend, and it is delicious!
1 cup cooked brown rice, warm or at room temperature
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 green onion, finely sliced (white and green parts)
1/2 red or green pepper, diced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
juice of 1 lime
1/2 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1-2 cups shredded cheese (I used a combination of Monterrey jack and sharp cheddar--and I don't measure I just sprinkle it on)
6 medium tortillas
Mix rice together with chili powder, cumin and garlic salt. Add remaining ingredients except for cheese Sprinkle cheese over tortillas, leaving 1/2-inch border around edges, then arrange rice mixture down the center of each tortilla. Roll stuffed tortillas, leaving edges open. Spray the tortillas cooking spray or brush lightly with olive oil. Heat a large non-stick skillet (or panini maker) over medium heat for 1 minute. Arrange 2 wraps, seam-side down, in pan and cook until golden brown and crisp, about 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining wraps. Serve with salsa or my favorite, homemade Guacamole--yum!
Guacamole
2 avocados, mashed
1 jalapeno minced
1/4 cup cilantro leaves, chopped
1 small tomato diced
kosher salt to taste
squeeze of a lemon
Salsa
2 cans Mexican Stewed Tomatoes
1 small can green Herdez salsa
2 cloves garlic
1 half bunch cilantro
*Put one can stewed tomatoes and cilantro in processor or blender and blend until mixed. Add everything else and pulse until there are no chunks of garlic.
