Recipe Introduction
This may be made ahead and reheated just before serving. It is wonderful as
a leftover for lunch the next day or two.
Preparation Time: 20 minutes
Cooking Time: 10 minutes
Servings: 8-10
List of Ingredients
16 ounces firm, water packed tofu (not silken)
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons chili powder
3 teaspoons rice vinegar
1/2 cup vegetable broth
1 onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 cup frozen corn kernels, thawed
1 15 ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 1/2 cups cooked brown rice
1 cup barbecue sauce
8-10 fat free flour tortillas
Recipe
Drain the tofu and cut into small cubes. Place in a shallow bowl and sprinkle with cumin, chili powder and vinegar. Stir gently to mix. Set aside, mixing occasionally.
Place the vegetable broth in a large non-stick frying pan. Add onion and bell pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Stir in corn, black beans, brown rice and barbecue sauce. Cook for an additional 2 minutes. Add tofu and continue to cook about 3 minutes longer, stirring
gently when needed.
Warm tortillas. Spoon about 1/2 to 3/4 cup of the mixture down the center of the tortilla. Fold up bottom of tortilla, roll up sides and eat.
Optional: Set out bowls of shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, chopped onions and additional barbecue sauce or salsa. Another option would be a small amount of bean guacamole (Quick & Easy Cookbook, page 262) or broccomole (New McDougall Cookbook, page 116). Top the tofu-bean mixture with any of these items before rolling up.
Variation: Use pinto or white beans instead of the black beans.
