Roasted Vegetable Fajitas With Brown Rice Recipe

ingredients

1 pound eggplant, 1/2-inch dice
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 zucchini, halved lengthwise and cut into thin slices
1 red bell pepper, cored and cut into thin strips
1 green bell pepper, cored and cut into thin strips
1 red onion, cut into 1/2-inch slices
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
2 cloves garlic, minced
12 whole wheat flour tortillas (8-inch size)
4 cups cooked brown rice, warm
6 tablespoons tomato salsa
12 sprigs fresh cilantro

directions

Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F. Coat a baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.

In a large bowl, toss the eggplant with the oil to coat. Add the zucchini, bell peppers, onion, vinegar, and garlic, tossing to mix well.

Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan. Roast uncovered stirring once or twice, until the vegetables are tender, 25-30 minutes.

Heat a dry large frying pan (not one with a nonstick surface) over medium heat. One at a time, heat the tortillas in the hot pan on each side until softened about 20 seconds per side.

To serve, divide the tortillas among individual plates. Spread an equal amount of the vegetable mixture and rice on each tortilla. Top with 1/2 tablespoon of the salsa.

Fold in both sides of each tortilla up over the filling, then roll to close. Garnish with the cilantro sprigs.
