VEGETARIAN BURRITOS

I created these as a healthy homemade version of the burritos served in one of our favorite Mexican restaurant chains.  I've discovered that flavored Greek yogurt is a nice healthy substitute for sour cream in Mexican dishes. Adding chopped cilantro or parsley, garlic powder or salt, and onion powder to plain Greek yogurt works nicely.  Another option is to use Greek yogurt ranch flavored dip that can be purchased in most supermarkets.

1 15-ounce can chicken or veggie broth

2 teaspoons coconut, olive, or canola oil

1 cup minus 2 tablespoons raw brown rice

2 teaspoons cumin

2 teaspoons chili powder

1/4 -1/2 cup chopped cilantro

2 Roma tomatoes, chopped

1/2 cup finely chopped onion

1 16 ounce can fat free refried beans

4 whole grain burrito size tortillas

Plain Greek yogurt, flavored (see above) or fat free sour cream

salsa

In a medium saucepan, bring broth to a boil.  Add oil, rice, cumin, and chili powder.  Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 45-50 minutes, or until rice is tender.  Stir in cilantro, tomatoes, and onions.  Reheat if necessary.  Heat refried beans and tortillas.  Spread 1/4 can of the beans on each tortilla.  Top with 1/4 of the rice.  Roll up burrito style.  Top with salsa and flavored yogurt.  Makes 4 large burritos.
