Ingredients (use vegan versions):

* 1 pkg. 6 whole wheat tortillas (burrito size)
* 3/4 cup uncooked organic brown rice
* 1 15 oz. can organic non-fat refried black beans
* 1/2 lb. organic firm tofu
* 1 small zucchini
* 1 small carrot
* 4-5 small white mushrooms

Directions:

Quick Guacamole (optional)

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

* 1 small avocado
* 1/4 cup prepared salsa

Directions:

Cook rice according to package directions. Heat black beans over low heat.

Cut tofu into 1/2" cubes. Chop zucchini, carrot, and mushrooms into bite size pieces. Blanch
carrot in a bowl of water in microwave for 1-2 minutes to soften.

In a non-stick saucepan, sauté tofu until browned. Set aside. In same saucepan, add zucchini,
blanched carrot, and mushrooms. Sauté until water has cooked off. Remove from heat and add tofu
back in.

Quick Guacamole: Remove avocado from skin and mash. Add prepared salsa.

To assemble: Soften tortilla by placing between two sheets of paper towel in microwave for 10-
20 seconds. Add scoop of black beans, rice, and tofu-veggie sauté. Add guacamole, sliced
olives, salsa if desired.

Alternatives: Substitute any of your favorite vegetables for the ones listed here. (These ones
work well because they have a high water content and can be cooked without oil.)

Serves: 6

Preparation time: 40 min.
