Meatless burrito on a plate

Excellent meatless lunch or dinner with rice - enjoy this healthy and delicious meatless burrito on a plate. If you like rice, beans and melted cheese, don't hesitate to double the amount of listed ingredients, so that something remains also for the next day. This meal will boost you with protein and fill you up for a long time.

Vegetarian version of burrito in a fit, healthy form. Only rice, vegetables, cheese and spices - a very easy recipe full of different flavors that will awaken your taste buds. On one side, melted cheese enthusing on the tongue, on the other side crispy peppers, fresh salad and corn in conjunction with creamy rice and tomato. That is the taste of this fit meatless burrito.
