Ingredients

Burrito Filling

  • 1 spinach tortilla/wrap (12 inches)
  • 1/2 cup cooked black beans
  • 1/2 cup cooked brown rice
  • 1/2 cup grilled veggies (I used mushrooms and onions)
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheese
  • 3 TBS salsa
  • 3 TBS guacamole (optional)
  • Hot sauce or diced jalapenos (optional)

Zombie Face

  • 2 slices roma tomato
  • 2 slices black olive
  • 2 cooked black beans
  • 1/2 oz slice of white cheese (I used provolone slices)
  • 1 TBS sauted onion
  • Salsa/hot sauce

Instructions

Burritos

  1. Heat tortilla according to package directions (microwave for 5-10 seconds).
  2. Preheat a large heavy bottomed skillet over medium heat.
  3. Place all ingredients you are using for the filling into the center of the burrito.
  4. Fold on side of the tortilla over and tuck it into the filing. Tuck in the end and roll the burrito so it sits on top of the seam.
  5. Place burrito seam side down in the hot skillet and top with a cast iron grill press. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the tortilla is starting to brown and the seam is sealed shut. Flip over and brown on the other side.

Faces

  1. Place the burrito seam side down on a plate, with the head end furthest from you.
  2. Use the tomato slices as eyes, and the olive slices as pupils in the eyes.
  3. Place 2 black beans vertically to represent the nose.
  4. Cut the cheese into blocks and place on the burrito to make teeth.
  5. Place 1 TBS sauted onions on top of the head, like brains sticking out.
  6. Garnish the face with additional salsa or hot sauce for dramatic effect.

Notes

Choose a really thick salsa for the filling. A thin, runny salsa will make a messy burrito if you try to eat it by hand.
