Ingredients

  • 1/2 Onion (sliced)

  • 1 Teaspoon of Olive Oil
  • 2 Large Flour Tortillas
  • 1 Ripe Avocado (sliced)

Method

  1.  Begin by cooking the rice. You can use any type of rice you prefer, or try the cilantro lime rice recipe from Gimmiedelicious.com.
  2. While the rice is cooking, heat a small pan to high heat. Add the olive oil, onion, and bell pepper. Cook these on high heat for 3-4 minutes, or until the veggies begin to brown on the edges. 
  3. Turn off the heat and set the pan aside.
  4. Lay a flour tortilla on a flat surface and top it with half of your cooked veggies, 1/2 of the avocado, 1/2 of the beans, 2 tablespoons of sour cream, 1 tablespoon of salsa, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
  5. Fold in the sides of the tortilla over the filling and roll up to completely enclose. Wrap this in in foil and cut in half.
  6. Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients. 
  7. Serve warm and enjoy!
