Easy Antojitos!

The other weekend (forgive me for the late post!) Rob and I tested out a recipe for antojitos, which I got from foodtv.ca. It's a recipe by Christine Cushing, from an episode entitled "Student Food". Here's the recipe:

Ingredients

1 can of black beans, rinsed and drained

2 cloves of garlic, minced

8 flour tortillas

1 avocado, sliced

3 roasted red peppers, sliced

1 tsp ground cumin

1 tsp ground coriander

juice of 1 lime

1 cup of grated cheese

salt and pepper to taste

Directions

1. Mash beans with a fork or potato masher. 

2. Add garlic, lime juice, and spices.

3. Salt and pepper to taste.

4. Spread black bean mix evenly onto the tortillas.

5. Sprinkle with avocado, roasted red pepper, and cheese.

6. Roll and slice into 1 inch pieces.

Rob and I thought these would be better baked for a little while. I also found that maybe there was too much cheese. (I know, can there ever really be too much cheese!?).

The lime juice added a nice kick to the black bean mix. Maybe some diced jalapenos woud be good too?

This was an easy recipe, and is pretty healthy (much healthier if you leave out the cheese... but really, who does that? hahaha)

Enjoy!
