Many people love baked beans. But for those who don’t, just leave them out and use the mashed haricot beans (with a squirt of tomato puree if you like). The beans and the wheat in the tortilla combine to make a whole protein.
This filling can also be used to fill a whole tortilla that you can roll into a burrito and then fry.
Ingredients (makes 4)
2 wholemeal tortilla cut in half
½ tin baked beans
½ tin haricot bean (without a sauce)
Chopped veg: tomatoes, peppers, spring onions, sweetcorn
Handful of grated cheese
Egg pancake (Instructions: scramble an egg in a mug. Heat butter in a frying pan. When hot, tip in egg and cook like a pancake).
Knob of butter
Method
- Mash the haricot beans with a fork.
- Add the baked beans and stir well.
- Heat butter in a frying pan. When hot place your half tortilla in the pan.
