Nommy Mexican Wraps
Core stuff:
Black beans, dried, half a bag
Few cloves of garlic
An onion
Coriander, cumin, chili powder, pepper, little bit of salt
Tin of chopped tomatoes
Any or all of peppers, sweetcorn, carrot bits, mushrooms
Tortilla wraps
Optional extras:
Cheese (not really an option you can leave out unless you're vegan or desperate)
Salsa
Lettuce
Sour cream
After lunch:
Chop the onion and the garlic and throw them into a saucepan. Add a bunch of spices and stir them around till they smell gorgeous. Put in a bunch of water and the beans and bring to the boil. Don't leave a spoon standing in there because it comes out purple. Keep on an almost-boil all afternoon, checking in every now and then and adding more water wherever necessary. About 40 minutes before you want to serve it take a look, and if it looks like it needs water don't add any. Add the tin of tomatoes instead and keep cooking it.
Warm tortillas, grate cheese and make salsa (or remove it from the fridge if you are a lazy monkey like me). Spoon vaguely dry, still juicy bean mixture into tortilla, add cheese and extras and wrap. Serve and marvel at the leftovers for everyone's lunch for tomorrow.
And now you may thank me, Weezl, and tell me that Jonathan Creek is all mine. *loves*Organised Birthdays and Christmas: Spend So Far: £193.75; Saved from RRP £963.76
