Tonight i thought i would try to make something with a slight Mexican twist in flavor. so i decided to make Vegetarian mock chicken burritos. with rice and black beans.
Ingredients
1 package frozen pre-breaded Mock chicken nuggets (Morning Star Product).
1 cup white or wild rice (your choice)
2 cups black beans (you can use fresh if you have time to cook them first)
or you can use 2 can’s whole beans not re-fried
2 packages mild taco or burrito seasoning mix, or you can create your
own
1 package Large Burrito shells
1 Medium or Large Onion ( chopped )
1 lb. package cheese your choice of flavor.
1 pt. Vegetarian sour cream ( check your local health food store)First thaw and slice mock chicken nuggets into small pieces and slightly brown in a medium to large skillet.
while your doing that you can be boiling your rice depending on your choice if you use white rice drain and rinse about 1/2 of the starch, leave a little to mix with your seasonings so this thickens just a little more like a thin gravy. if you are using canned black beans i would suggest you drain and rinse before using, since you don’t want your entire meal to look black from the liquid in the can. if your cooking your beans from scratch, make sure you’ve cooked till tender. once you have the first three items cooked add everything to a large skillet that you can cover, incorporate about another 1/2 cup water just enough to blend in your seasonings. now cover and cook stirring every so often so it doesn’t stick all total about 30 minutes or until most of the liquid has been absorbed or cooked down.
Once everything has cooked down your ready to assemble your dinner
enjoy and please leave comments
