Healthy Meal Monday: Easy Chicken and Bean Burritos Freezer Meal Recipe
We are always looking for healthy lunch and dinner options.  You will love how easy these are and they are a great freezer meal too.
They come together in a matter of minutes, and are so easy to make. My family is obsessed with these right now, and I am more than fine with that, since they are so easy to make, and full of all the good stuff.
They only require a few simple ingredients, most of which you probably already have on hand. They take minutes to throw together and make a great dinner.
If you have picky eaters, I highly recommend this recipe. My littlest eaters love it, and always ask for seconds.

What veggies could I sneak into this healthy burrito recipe?

I am a huge topping person. Especially if I can sneak vegetables into my diet, without eating them plain, I am one happy girl. Here are a few of my favorite additions to these burritos.

I also cut everything very small, and even sauté some items, to keep my kids from noticing all the delicious veggies in them.

-Lettuce
-Spinach
-Sprouts
-Cucumber Slices (sliced very thin)
-Carrot Shreds
-Celery (sliced very thin)
-Olive Slices
-Tomato
-Banana Peppers
-Avocado
-Jalapeno Slices (without the seeds)
-Plain Greek Yogurt
-Red Bell Peppers
-Green Bell Peppers

Ingredients

  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
  • 3 cups brown rice, cooked
  • 1 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 15 ounces sweet corn, drained
  • 15 ounces black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 Tablespoon cumin
  • ½ cup cilantro, chopped
  • 8 whole wheat tortillas
  • salt and pepper, to taste

Equipment

Instructions

  1. First add oil chopped onion to the pan and cook on the stove top until soft and a little brown.
  2. Add the rest of the ingredients to the pan and cook until heated through and cilantro is wilted.
  3. Then put the mixture on a whole wheat tortilla. If making into a freezer meal wrap up now, if a meal add toppings.
  4. Here are some of our favorite toppings – light sour cream, shredded cheese, diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce or spinach, sliced olives, spouts, and diced avocado.
  5. If you use large tortillas, you can make about 8 good-sized burritos. You can serve them hot or wrap each burrito individually in foil and stick in the freezer. I love to double this recipe and freeze them so my husband can take some to school and cook them in the microwave for lunch.
