A good veggie meal that our family enjoys is bean wraps. Here's the recipe -

1 can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 can corn kernals, drained
1 can chopped tomatoes
1 chopped onion
3 teaspoons crushed garlic (or 3 chopped cloves)
little bit of olive oil to prevent sticking
wholemeal flatbread wraps

Heat oil in saucepan, add onion and garlic, cook til onion is soft. Add in beans, corn, tomatoes. Simmer til thick. Spoon into wraps, fold up, bake on a tray in a 180 degree oven until slightly brown.

These are great, because you can fiddle around with them. You can use dried beans and fresh corn and tomatoes if you're avoiding canned stuff, you can use all organic stuff, you can add cheese to your wraps, etc. You can add spices if you want to give it a bit of zip, such as cumin or chili. It's a really versatile recipe!

Another way is to serve it over rice. From what I understand, the beans/rice combo creates a "perfect protein". Enjoy!

I hope you like them Jayne. They're a good "pantry meal" - you can keep all the ingredients on hand in the pantry for when you need a quick meal.

You're welcome Ruth :-D. I just love how versatile they are! Wraps, over rice, by itself, it's all yummy :mrgreen:. I'm sure that you could add in other veggies too if you wanted to.

Oh Joy, I'm so glad that you like it! It's one thing to find recipes that meet your dietary requirements, it's another thing altogether to find ones you like! So glad the recipe is working for you :mrgreen:

Thanks for the rep, Joy - you're a sweetheart!

I made this - and used homemade whole wheat pita bread (courtesy of my grain grinder!) . It was delicious. I used dried beans because it's a fraction of the cost of canned beans. I topped it with chopped fresh spinach, avocado & tomato... it was really, really good, I plan to make it again, it's so healthy too!

Glad you liked it Nichole! It's yummy, isn't it? I love the sound of your toppings :-D

You're welcome Jen :mrgreen:
