Steps:
- Prepare a grill for medium heat.
- Split the yellow squash and zucchini lengthwise down the middle. Brush them and the corn with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and grill until the veggies are somewhat soft and have nice grill marks. Allow to cool slightly, then cut the squash and zucchini into large dice. Scrape the corn from the cob.
- Warm the tortillas in a microwave. Heat the black beans in a pot and mash with a fork.
- To build the burritos, heap some Garlic Cilantro Lime Rice, mashed beans and diced veggies in the middle of each tortilla. Top with grated cheese, chopped tomatoes, chopped onions and sour cream. Tuck in the ends and roll into a burrito shape.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and onions and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and add the rice and salt. Cook over a low heat for 3 minutes, stirring constantly to make sure the rice doesn't burn. Add 2 cups of the broth and the juice and zest of 2 limes and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes or until the rice is done. Add more liquid as needed. The rice shouldn't be sticky.
- Just before serving, stir through the juice of 1 lime and lots of chopped cilantro.

Steps:
- Puree all but 3 tablespoons cilantro with 2 cups water, the garlic, chile powder and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a blender until smooth. Transfer to a medium saucepan along with the rice and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low; cover and cook until the liquid is absorbed, about 18 minutes. Uncover, stir and let cool 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, bring the black bean soup to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium-high heat and cook until the liquid is slightly reduced, about 3 minutes. Stir in the spinach and return to a simmer. Remove from the heat and cover to keep warm.
- Toss the corn, tomato, lime juice, the reserved 3 tablespoons cilantro, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and chile powder to taste in a large bowl.
- Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or in the microwave. Divide the rice, bean mixture and cheese among the tortillas; top with some of the corn salsa. Fold up the bottoms of the tortillas, then fold in the sides and roll up. Serve with the remaining corn salsa.

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.
ROASTED VEGETABLE BURRITOS
Roasted mushrooms, sweet potatoes and poblano chiles become a comforting vegetarian burrito filling in just 30 minutes. The meaty mushrooms and hearty potatoes give it substance, while roasted poblanos impart subtle smoky notes and mild heat. (Green bell peppers are a good nonspicy alternative.) The mashed avocado and sour cream lend creamy richness, while shredded lettuce and pico de gallo bring welcome crunch and freshness. Although not necessary, leftover rice is a nice addition to the burritos for an even more substantial meal.

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.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, high-quality vegetables. This will ensure that your burritos are packed with flavor and nutrients.
- Don't overcrowd the grill. If you do, the vegetables will not cook evenly.
- Cook the vegetables until they are tender but still have a bit of a bite. You don't want them to be mushy.
- Use a variety of vegetables. This will add flavor and texture to your burritos.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different fillings. You can add anything from beans and rice to roasted potatoes.
- Make sure to wrap your burritos tightly. This will help them stay together and make them easier to eat.
Conclusion:
Grilled veggie burritos are a delicious and healthy meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make grilled veggie burritos at home. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try.
