When I set out to make these burritos I knew I wanted to jazz them up, so I used a leftover that really made me go Loco for this burrito.
My secret ingredient was this little gem, I added barley instead of brown rice, I thought why not, it’s a grain and I had a bowl full of leftovers.
Keeping it easy, I just reheated the barley in a pan added a can of black beans and some salsa.
Scrambled 6 eggs and seasoned to taste, a little salt a little pepper.
Mixed it all together.
Oops, I almost forgot the cheese.
Did I forget to mention it had avocado in it.
Tortillas always are so much easier to fold and tuck after they are heated up. So I heated each side for a minute.
I packed it full and topped with avocado slices, then I did my best to tuck and fold it up.
Garnished with a few additional slices of avocado and some more shredded cheese.
I crushed it bite by bite, it was really good go get em’ fuel. I ended up doing an amazing workout after I ate it, and it even kept me full for a few hours after my workout. That really never happens. I think the beans and the barley did their job well.
Wrapped up a few burritos so that I could take them to work with me and have a Loco burritos for lunch.
Later in the day I wanted more so I made a Blue Chip Loco Nacho. I will use any reason to make a nacho.
It was a thing of beauty.
