Beef, pumpkin and bean burrito 

Cook time: 25 minutes 

Prep time: 25 minutes 

Serves: 6

300gm beef mince  

3 tbsp sunflower oil  

1 onion, peeled & diced  

4 cloves garlic, peeled & crushed  

1 can whole-peeled tomatoes  

2 tbsp Mike's house rub  

1/2 pumpkin, peeled & diced  

3 carrots, peeled & diced  

1 can black beans, drained  

3 cups cooked rice  

1 cup grated tasty cheese  

salt and pepper  

6 flour wraps

Pre-heat your oven to 180*c. Toss the pumpkin and carrots in oil and season. Spread out onto a tray and bake for 25 minutes, remove and cool.  

Heat a medium sized pan and add in the onions and garlic.  

Sauté for few minutes before adding the beef mince and house rub. Continue to sauté before adding in the whole-peeled tomatoes. Cook for a further 10 minutes before turning off, allowing to cool.  

To make up the burritos, carefully combine the mince, pumpkin, carrot, beans, rice and seasoning. Place 4-5 tbsp of beef onto each wrap and top with cheese. Wrap up tight and then wrap in tin-foil.  

Place into the oven for 25 minutes before serving.
