Ingredients
- 1 medium onion
- as much garlic as you can stand
- 2- 15 oz. cans of black beans
- 1- 15 oz. can of corn
- 1- jar of your favorite salsa
- 1- package of seitan
- herbs and spices: cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder
- large, flat wraps (tortillas)
First, chop up the onion and the garlic and sauté in a LARGE pot with a small amount of water, or if you''d like, olive oil.
While that''s sizzling, open up the cans of beans and corn and wash ''em up in a colander (rid them of the salty gook).
Next, chop up the seitan into nice bite-sized chunks.
Open the jar of salsa.
(This is the fun part) Gather your roommates. Hand the beans and corn, seitan, and salsa to each roommate, respectively. On the count of three, have them throw everything into the pot without spilling any. Each roommate that succeeds gets half of a burrito (don''t worry, they will all fail).
You (the chef) then turn the heat up to high and stir the stuff in the pot like MAD, making sure that it does not scald in the bottom of the pan. With your third and fourth arms, add the spices that you like, licking the spoon in between each addition, ending the chances that your roommates will covet your burritos.
When everything is to your liking, take the pot off the heat. Throw some of the filling from the pot onto a wrap, near an edge. Wrap it up!
Notes: One of the roommates insists that a layer of rice would go well in these. These are high in protein and fiber, and if you wash the beans well and buy non-salty seitan and wraps, pretty low in sodium. They''re fantastic hot or cold. Wrap one up to take for lunch--better than "vegan" (yeah-right) dining hall food.
