Spicy Korean Burritos

Ingredients

  • 4 - 10 inch plain soft tortillas
  • 4 leaves leafy lettuce
  • 1 1/3 cups cooked brown basmati rice
  • 14 oz can black beans rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup frozen thawed corn kernels, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup prepared refrigerated kimchi
  • 1 cup low-fat shredded mozzarella or nondairy cheese
  • 1 cup fresh cilantro leaves

Instructions

  • Slightly warm soft tortillas so they’re easier to handle and are less likely to split as you roll them. Place tortilla on work surface and set lettuce leaf off-center on tortilla. Place 1/4 of the cooked rice just below center of tortilla. Top with 1/4 of each of the following: black beans, corn, kimchi, cheese, and cilantro. Be sure ingredients are slightly off-center, with at least a 1 inch border.
  • To shape burrito, using both hands, fold opposite sides of tortilla in toward the center. Then, using your thumbs, fold up the bottom flap over filling and begin to tightly roll up, tucking in sides with your fingers. Handle gently to avoid tearing. Wrap tightly in parchment or foil and serve as is. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
  • To serve warm, heat wrapped burrito in dry pan over medium-high heat for a few minutes. Or warm in 350 F oven for 20 minutes.
