• Yield: 8 servings.

Steps:

• For the veggies: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
• Add the cauliflower, green and yellow bell peppers, red onion and garbanzo beans to the prepared sheet pan. Drizzle with the olive oil. Mix together the chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, pepper, turmeric and cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle over the vegetables and toss to fully coat.
• Roast until the vegetables are deep in color and tender, 15 to 17 minutes.
• For the burritos: To build, lay out one of the tortillas. Spread 2 tablespoons of the hummus onto the burrito. Top with 3 tablespoons of the rice. Add 1/2 cup of the roasted vegetables. Drizzle over 1 tablespoon of tzatziki. Add 1/2 cup of the kale and hot sauce to taste if using. Fold the edges and roll tightly. Wrap in foil until ready to eat; repeat with the remaining tortillas and toppings.

Steps:

• Toss the vegetables in a large bowl with the oil, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper. Let sit at least 1 hour to marinate.
• Preheat the grill.
• Grill the vegetables over hot coals (or cook in a hot dry skillet) until tender, turning occasionally to avoid charring.
• To assemble, warm the tortillas briefly on the grill to render them pliable, and spread them out on a counter. Divide the vegetables and place in a strip down the center of each tortilla. Top with the Avocado Corn Relish and drizzle with some of the Tomatillo Salsa (being careful not to over sauce, or the burritos will be soggy). Fold the bottom quarter of each tortilla up and then roll from the side into a cylinder. Serve immediately, with the remaining salsa on the side.
• Place the flour, salt and shortening in the bowl of a heavy-duty mixer. Beat with the paddle until crumbly, 3 to 5 minutes. With the mixer running, gradually add the warm water and continue mixing until the dough is smooth, about 3 minutes.
• Divide the dough into 8 pieces. Roll each into a ball and place on a baking tray or board. Cover with a towel and let rest at room temperature at least 15 minutes or up to 1 hour.
• Cut out eight 12-inch squares of waxed or parchment paper for stacking the tortillas. On a lightly floured board, roll each ball into a 10-inch circle, and transfer to a paper square. Stack on a baking tray or platter and refrigerate until cooking time. Uncooked tortillas can be kept in the refrigerator, well wrapped with paper squares between the layers, up to 2 days.
• To cook, heat a dry griddle or 12-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat. Carefully peel off the paper and cook the tortillas, one at a time, until puffy and slightly brown, 30 to 45 seconds per side. Set aside to cool slightly on a towel-lined platter. Bring to the table wrapped in a towel for warmth, or wrap well and refrigerate or freeze for quesadillas or other dishes.
• Yield: 8 large tortillas
• Method for Tomatillo Sauce (Green Salsa):
• In blender place tomatillos, jalapenos and water. Puree until just chunky. Add remaining ingredients and puree about 2 minutes more, or until no large chunks remain. This salsa keeps in the refrigerator, in a covered container, about 3 days.
• Heat 1/2 cup of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Saute the corn with the salt and pepper, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a large mixing bowl and set aside to cool.
• Cut the avocados, bell pepper and roasted poblanos into 1/4-inch dice.
• Add to the Sauteed corn along with the scallions, red wine vinegar and the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil.
• Mix well and let sit 20 to 30 minutes to blend the flavors.
• Serve at room temperature. Corn relish can be stored, tightly covered, in the refrigerator up to a day. To make 2 to 3 days in advance, mix all the ingredients except the avocado and store in the refrigerator. Add the avocado shortly before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. In 12-inch skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook onion in oil about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until tender. Stir in bell peppers, carrots, garlic, chile, oregano, cumin and salt. Cook 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir in water. Reduce heat to low. Cover; cook 5 to 10 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender.
• Spread about 3 tablespoons refried beans on each tortilla. Spoon about 1/3 cup vegetable mixture and 1/4 cup cheese onto each tortilla. Fold sides up over filling; roll up tortilla. On ungreased large cookie sheet, place burritos, seam sides down, about 1 inch apart. Brush tops and sides with salsa.
• Bake 18 to 22 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Serve topped with additional salsa and sour cream, if desired.

Steps:

• To make the beans, heat the oil in a pan and fry the garlic for a minute, then stir in the chipotle paste. Tip in the tomatoes, stir and bring to a simmer. Season with salt. Simmer until thick, add the beans and cook briefly (make sure any water gets cooked off), then stir in the coriander.
• If you are using cold cooked rice, then warm it through, stir in the lime juice, red onion and nuts and season well.
• Lay out the tortillas and sprinkle over some spinach, add some avocado slices and some rice, then top with the bean mix. Add a shake of hot sauce, if you like. Roll the bottom up, then fold the sides in to stop the filling falling out as you roll. Wrap tightly in foil, if you like, and cut in half.

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Add the onion and cook for 3 minutes, or until translucent. Add the bell peppers and mushrooms and season with salt. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, then cover and cook for 5 minutes, until the peppers and mushrooms are softened.
• Add the kale and cook until wilted. Remove the veggies from the pan and set aside. Wipe out the pan.
• In a bowl, combine the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk to combine. Set aside.
• Heat another drizzle of olive oil in the clean pan. Add the eggs and cook until scrambled to your liking. Remove from the heat.
• Lay a tortilla on a clean work surface. Add about ⅛ of the eggs and cooked vegetables, 2 ounces of beans, and ½ tablespoon each of the cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses to the center. Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll into a burrito. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
• Heat a clean skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the burritos on both sides, starting with the seam side, until the tortilla is brown and crisp.
• Wrap the burritos individually in foil or reusable beeswax wraps. They will keep in the freezer for up to 3 weeks.
• When ready to eat, unwrap a burrito and microwave for 3 minutes. Serve with salsa.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
• Turn a muffin tin upside down, and stuff tortilla shells into the spaces between the cups so that the tortillas form a bowl shape. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden and crispy.
• Heat the olive oil in a large, nonstick skillet. Toss in the diced bell peppers, zucchini, salt, cayenne pepper, thyme, and garlic, and sauté until the vegetables have softened, about 8 minutes.
• Add in the cannellini beans and sauté just until the beans have fully warmed through, about 2 minutes.
• Divide the mixture evenly between 4-6 tortilla bowls. Top with guacamole and pico de gallo and serve.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees. On a rimmed baking sheet, combine mushrooms, poblano chiles, sweet potato, garlic, oregano, smoked paprika and oil, and season with salt and pepper; toss to evenly coat. Roast, stirring halfway through, until vegetables are golden and tender, about 15 minutes. Push the vegetables into a 12-by-6-inch rectangle and sprinkle with the cheese; roast just until cheese melts, about 2 minutes longer.
• Spread one-quarter of the mashed avocado in the center of each tortilla. Top each with 2 tablespoons of the sour cream, 1/4 cup lettuce and 2 tablespoons pico de gallo, then evenly divide the cheesy roasted vegetables on top. Fold the short sides of the tortilla in over the filling; fold the bottom of the tortilla up and over the filling and tightly roll. Serve warm.
