Friday Nutrition & Recipes: Southwestern Chili Bean Wraps

1/12/2018

Today I want to share my favorite post run meal. Easy to make and absolutely delicious! After a run of any type but especial those long runs or track workouts days  you need to make sure you refuel. While there are quicker ways to do this sometimes that protein shake or bar just doesn't hit the spot. You not only want to refuel your body but also reward yourself for a job well done and what better what than with a great tasting meal. Now that doesn't mean go to your favorite hamburger joint or greasy pizza place. You can eat healthy and still love what you eat! Today we will give you the recipe for our Southwestern Chili Bean Wraps. Take 15 min to make and even less if you already have chili beans made from another meal. I love chili beans so I will make if for dinner the night before and have leftover to use for this quick meal

Here is what you need:
  • 1 small onion, sliced
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 400g can mixed beans, drained and rinsed
  • 400g can chopped tomatoes
  • 30g fajita seasoning or chili bean seasoning 
  • soft corn tortillas wraps
  • grated cheese, guacamole,soured cream and/or Salsa
  • handful Cilantro chopped 

Here is how you prepare them:
  1. Gently fry onions for 5 mins in oil, until softened. put in beans, tomatoes and seasoning, then simmer for 10 mins, stirring occasionally.
  2. Meanwhile, warm the wraps on a comal or flat griddle (flat pan will work too)
  3. Take a large spoonful of beans and spoon along the center of each wrap. Top with some grated cheese, a spoonful of guacamole and soured cream and a sprinkling of cilantro. Wrap into a cigar shape and enjoy!
