I created this Mango, Black Bean & Caramelized Veggie Burrito recipe because I wanted something that was really tasty and fun, but also featured vitamin C superstars, like mangos, since vitamin C is an important nutrient for immune health. Did you know that 3/4 cup of mango provides 50% of your daily vitamin C? Cheers to that!

Once you’ve pre-prepped all of the ingredients, the recipe is really easy to make. It’s kind of like a veggified fried rice, but with tropical flair. And then you roll up everything into a whole grain tortilla to transform it into this colorful, crave-worthy, and nutrient-packed burrito! Or, if you prefer, serve it bowl-style with the tortilla on the side.

I teamed up with The National Mango Board to create this. You’ll especially appreciate the naturally sweet and smoky kick from the chipotle mango stuffed into the burrito. (I do! I do!)

Hope you enjoy this fun burrito soon!

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, stir together the mango, chipotle powder, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the lime juice, and 1/8 teaspoon of the salt. Set aside.
2. In a large (12-inch or larger) deep cast iron or other stick-resistant skillet over medium-high, heat the oil. Add the sweet potato and sauté for 3 minutes. Add the rice, bell peppers, corn, turmeric, and black pepper and sauté until bell peppers are caramelized (browned), about 8 minutes. Add the black beans and cook while stirring until the beans are heated through, about 2 minutes.
3. Remove skillet from the heat, stir in the cilantro and remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons lime juice and 3/4 teaspoon salt, and adjust seasoning.
4. Top each tortilla with the crumbled cashew cheese (if using), veggie mixture, cubed avocado, and chipotle mango; roll up burrito-style, folding in the sides. Cut in half, if desired. Alternatively, serve as burrito bowls, with tortillas on the side. Top as desired, such as with salsa verde, pico de gallo, or guacamole, and serve.
