Mushroom and Broccoli Rice Wrapper

Ingredients

Extra Virgin Olive oil
Mushrooms
Broccoli
Cooked brown rice
Spinach
Shallots
Basil
Brown Rice Tortilla(I use Food 4 Life)
salt and pepper to taste

Cut the veggies in small pieces. Saute all the veggies with olive oil, warm the rice in the pan with the veggies, add salt and pepper to taste(put the basil in at the end -wilt just before serving) At the end of the cooking time it helps to add just a TBSP or two of water to steam the veggies at the end and create a little sauce. Toast the rice tortilla in a pan with a little olive oil, put mushroom/broccoli veggie filling in tortilla and enjoy!
