Chickpea Butt-ritos

dinner, mexican

ingredients

  • 1 box mexican rice
  • 1 can refried beans
  • 1 can chickpeas
  • mexican cheese
  • burrito tortillas
  • avocado
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper

instructions

  1. Make the rice and warm up the refried beans.
  2. Drain and rinse chickpeas. Dry with paper towels (wet ones won’t roast well) and, for this recipe, de-skin chickpeas using a paper towel to gently pull them off.
  3. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a frying pan and add chickpeas. Cook until starting to brown, then add spices and continue to cook (letting them crumble in the pan a bit) until crispy.
  4. Assemble the burritos by spreading the beans, rice, chickpeas, cheese, avo, and any veggies across the middle of the taco. Then fold and roll up.
  5. Heat up a pan with a little oil and cook the burritos on each side.
