Barley, Black Bean and Corn Burritos image

This recipe came from Slow Cooking Magazine, and it is one of our family's favorites. I don't go to the bother of rolling each burrito as instructed in the recipe, but rather just stick the crock of barley mixture on the table along with tortillas, shredded lettuce and cheese, sour cream and salsa so everyone can make his/her own. It's super yummy, super easy and super filling. (I also omit the cilantro as we're a family of cilantro haters.) ***Note: the nutritional information shown with the recipe includes all the ingredients, but one serving of the barley filling alone is 145 calories. You can save lots of calories by going with light sour cream and cheese, and by choosing a lighter tortilla.

I thought these burritos were just okay. I wasn't a big fan of the barley.

I'm not a big fan of Mexican food, but I thought these burritos were pretty good. The flavors were well-balanced and the chipotle crema was a nice touch.

These burritos were a little too dry for me. I think I would add more salsa or guacamole next time.
