The editor of VT makes special mention of this recipe in her editorial of

September, 1999 because it received raves from all of the staff. I'm going

to try it, but first I have to travel to a store that has the veggie

sausage. I didn't find it in the enlarged natural foods section of my

local grocer.

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

16 ounces canned fat-free refried beans

1 3/4 cups medium to hot salsa

5 teaspoons vegetable oil

14 ounces packaged ground vegetarian " sausage "

3 large onions -- chopped

2 large potatoes -- diced (3 cups)

1/8 teaspoon paprika

6 flour tortillas -- (8-to 9-inch)

 

6 SERVINGS DAIRY-FREE

 

You can assemble these healthful treats as directed, wrap airtight in foil

and freeze for up to three months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator

before heating as directed.

 

Preheat oven to 425ø F. In small saucepan, stir together beans and 1/4 cup

salsa. Cook, stirring occasionally, over very low heat just until warmed

through.

 

Meanwhile, in large nonstick skillet, heat 2 1/2 teaspoons oil over medium

heat. Add " sausage " and cook, stirring occasionally and breaking up large

pieces with fork, until browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer to bowl; set

aside.

 

Add remaining 2 1/2 teaspoons oil to skillet and heat over medium heat.

Add onions and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 4 minutes. Stir

in potatoes, paprika and freshly ground pepper to taste.

 

Cook, stirring often, until potatoes are almost tender, 17 to 20 minutes.

Return " sausage " to skillet and mix well. Cook until potatoes are tender,

about 3 minutes more. Remove from heat.

 

Tear six large pieces of foil. Place tortillas flat on foil and thinly

spread each with about 1/4 cup bean mixture. Spoon heaping 1/2 cup potato

mixture down center of each tortilla. Top potato mixture with remaining

salsa (use about 2 1/2 tablespoons salsa for each tortilla).

 

Fold bottom of each tortilla up to cover filling. Fold sides toward

center, then roll up from bottom. Wrap in foil and bake until hot, about

10 minutes.
