Black Bean, Rice, and Yam Wraps

Feeling the chocolate coma from Easter weekend? Here's a recipe to get a little more veg back in your diet that tastes great and is easy to make.

Serves 4-6

1 ½ cups short grain brown rice
½ cup sweet brown rice
4 cups water
pinch sea salt


1 large yam, cut into large chunks
3 cups cooked black beans, or 2 cans
1 large avocado, mashed
salsa
mixed greens
brown rice tortillas

Directions:

1.     Preheat the oven to 425 F

2.     To cook rice, place the short grain rice, sweet rice, water and sea salt into a 2-quart pot, cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 45 minutes. Remove pot from heat and let stand for at least 10 to 15 minutes.

3.     While the rice is cooking, place the yam chunks into a small casserole dish, fill with about ½ inch of water, place the lid on the casserole dish and bake in the oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the yams are very tender. Remove skins from yams and slightly mash them with a fork.

4.     To assemble a wrap, lay tortilla flat onto a plate and place a small amount of rice in the middle of it, add some cooked black beans, some mashed yam, mashed avocado, salsa, and some mixed greens. Fold the ends in and roll.

Note: If using the brown rice tortillas make sure you warm them before use because they often fall apart when cold.

Black Bean, Rice, and Yam Wraps is the food that we have in the picture. We can see that these ingredients are so visible in the blog and we can see how delicious this food is. There are parts of the post that I want to read again because I want to assure myself that I have read this clearly and everything is clear to me. I will follow the needed ingredients to create this food. A preparation that is full of trial and error. This is a great time in the kitchen to learn.
