The Ultimate Veggie Burrito

Prep:15minCook:45min
Annaliese and Katarina loved it! Rice not necessary to make. Used 3 potatoes, no peppers, 1 onion, 1 1/2 c dry black beans, 2T tomato paste, 1 T chili powder, all else the same. Pressure cooked soaked beans in veggie broth for 6 minutes (they needed a little longer).
Cook brown rice in the instant pot with garlic. Add lime juice lime zest and cilantro when it's done.
Skip the onion and cook everything else in a pan on the stove. 1/2 tsp of chili powder was too much for a double recipe! Use three cans of black beans and six red potatoes for a double recipe. Used only two tablespoons of tomato paste and two cups of vegetable broth for a double recipe.
