Ingredients
- 50g Brazil nuts, roughly chopped
- large handful kale, woody stalks removed and leaves shredded
- 1 lime, juiced
- 4 large or 8 small wholemeal tortilla wraps
- ½ pack coriander
- spiced tomato rice
- refried beans
- 1 yellow pepper, sliced
- 1 avocado, sliced (optional)
- hot sauce, to serve
For the dressing
- 150g cream cheese
- 50ml milk
Method
- STEP 1
Before making the burritos, you will need to cook the spiced tomato rice and Brazil nut refried beans, then set aside.
- STEP 2
Now toast 50g Brazil nuts in a dry frying pan until golden and set aside. Meanwhile make a cheese dressing by whisking the cream cheese together with the milk until smooth, then cover and keep in the fridge until needed.
- STEP 3
Put the kale in a bowl and squeeze over half the lime juice. Scrunch together with your hands to soften the leaves a little.
- STEP 4
Lay out the tortilla wraps and divide everything between them, including the cheese dressing, hot sauce and remaining lime juice. Season to taste.
- STEP 5
Fold in the ends and roll them up into a tight, fat cylinder shape. You may find it easier to wrap in foil too, or toast them in a dry frying pan to lightly brown the burritos and seal in the fillings, if you like. Cut each one in half before serving.
