These tomato and black bean burrito bowls have a spicy kick from pickled jalapeños. Naturally gluten free and easily vegan
Pickled hot peppers, like these Baxters Deli Toppers Jalapeños are so versatile. Depending on how much heat is your thing, they can spice up some nachos, a pizza or hot dogs, but we’ve used them here to spruce up some quick black bean burrito bowls with tomatoes, inspired by Mexican cooking and street food. Or try one of my 10 Pickled Jalapenos recipes!
This is a really quick and simple recipe; onions, spices, tomatoes and black beans and the jalapeños. To make it even quicker you can use a sachet of microwavable rice and frozen chopped onions – they are a freezer staple and one of my favourite time saving ingredients – simply pour as much as you want into the pan and fry from frozen. Perfect to pull together in a matter of minutes and then to eat relaxing with the latest box set. Serve with my cheesy nachos.
