Loaded with veggies, rice, beans, and flaky delicious Bumble Bee Tuna. These burritos are toasted and then topped with a sweet and spicy honey wasabi sauce
Ingredients
  • 1 teaspoon oil
  • 1 cup thinly sliced mushrooms (I used shitake mushrooms)
  • ½ cup matchstick carrots
  • ½ cup red bell peppers, cut into thin strips about 2" long
  • ½ a medium red onion, very thinly sliced
  • 2 teaspoons low sodium soy sauce
  • 5 ounces Bumble Bee Premium Albacore Tuna in Water; completely drained of any liquid
  • 4 (8") flour tortillas
  • 1 cup cooked rice
  • 1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
  • ½ cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • ¼ cup sliced green onions
  • ¼ cup diced tomatoes
  • For the Honey Wasabi Sauce:
  • ½ teaspoon wasabi paste (see note)
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt
Instructions
  1. Heat the oil in a medium skillet. Add the mushrooms, carrots, red bell peppers, and red onions. Toss in the soy sauce and cook the vegetables over medium high heat until they soften slightly -- only 4-5 minutes. Remove from the heat and gently stir in the tuna.
  2. In the center of each flour tortilla add ¼ cup rice and ¼ cup black beans. Top with the veggie tuna mixture and then sprinkle each with cheese, green onions, and diced tomatoes.
  3. To roll the burritos, pull the left and right sides toward the center. Then fold the bottom towards the center. Fold up while sort of stuffing the filling back in while you roll.
  4. Heat a small skillet over medium heat. Placing them in the pan SEAM SIDE DOWN, toast each burrito for about 30 seconds, flip, and then toast on the second side. You just want a light toasty brown on the outside of the tortilla.
  5. To make the honey wasabi sauce, mix together the wasabi paste, honey, and Greek yogurt until smooth. Drizzle over each burrito when serving or serve it for dipping on the side.
Notes
1. You can save time by purchasing carrots that are already cut into matchsticks. I also keep rice cooked in the fridge to keep recipes like this quick and simple, but you can use a quick-cooking "minute" product as well.
2. I find wasabi paste in the International aisle of my regular grocery store near the soy sauce.
