Black Bean and Quinoa Burrito - THM Friendly

ThatOrganicMom
This is a great gluten free vegetarian option that is great for your digestion. It is full of fiber! This is perfect in an E setting for the Trim Healthy Mama plan. I put full fat cheese on my children's and top theirs with sour cream so they stay in crossover mode! If you like, you can use some fat free sour cream on top and some extra salsa!
