  1. For the Tomato Sauce: Place whole tomatoes in boiling water for 1 minute. Drain and peel tomatoes and place in blender. Add garlic and jalapeno peppers and blend. Add garlic and blend until smooth. Add water if too thick. Lightly saute onion in some water in a saucepan, add tomato sauce and cook on high heat for 5 minutes. Remove from heat, add some olive oil, salt and pepper.
  2. For the Rice: Cook one cup of brown rice in water with 2 teaspoons of vegetable stock.
  3. For the Burrito Filling: Salt and Pepper In a large saucepan saute the garlic, onions and cumin in some water. Add mushrooms, Jalapeno Peppers, Capsicum and Corn and saute for about 5 minutes until vegetables are lightly cooked. Add coriander, kidney beans and cayenne pepper. Stir in tomato sauce.

Top with some slices of Avocado and some coriander. Roll the tortillas tightly and place in a oven proof container seam side down. Complete with all tortillas and top with tomato sauce and bake for 30 minutes.
  7. To serve: Serve two tortillas per person, garnish with the Tomato Sauce, Zesty Avocado Dressing, the Sour Cashew Cream and coriander
Notes... There are a few components to this dish, but they all work on their own as well. The ingredients are listed in terms of the different items that need to be cooked. The tomato sauce I use for a lot of things - even a simple dip for baked tortilla chips. The Avocado dressing is amazing as a creamy salad dressing, over vegetables, as a dip. The sour cream is the same. If you have any leftover Burrito filling just have with rice for dinner. So it is a recipe with quite a few uses.

  • Ooh, I love this — minus the jalapeno chillies. I don’t like heat but could definitely enjoy this without it.

  • A great recipe and thanks for the notes. hate cooking then finding out can not be saved because something turns up. Glad to know each element can be used in another way if needed.

    • Looks like a hugely long recipe at first glance – but when you break it down very doable and also the individual components all have great uses of their own

  • MAY leave out the Jalapeno Peppers but all the rest sounds delicious. Thanks for sharing.

    • Pleasure. A lot of people don’t like Jalapenos – so definitely leave them out if not your cup of tea. Still delicious.

  • I love the variety that this recipe offers and its different uses. Initially, it seems a lot of ingredients and a lot to do, but I think I can take a few things from this recipe.

    • There are a few different parts that you can use on their own. So a few recipes in one.
