Perfect for a light lunch or a low-carb dinner option, this dish is incredibly satisfying and packed with garden-fresh taste.Ingredients
Directions
-
In a small bowl, whisk together grated lime peel, lime juice, distilled white vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, ground cumin, minced garlic, and minced jalapeno chile to create the marinade.
-
Place the corn kernels, red kidney beans, chopped cucumber, and minced cilantro in a large non-metal bowl or a heavy-duty resealable plastic bag.
-
Pour the lime marinade over the vegetable mixture. If using a bag, seal it tightly and rotate to coat evenly. If using a bowl, stir gently to combine and cover airtight.
-
Refrigerate the mixture for at least 20 minutes, or up to 4 hours, stirring or rotating occasionally to ensure even flavor distribution.
-
Remove the mixture from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to scoop out the vegetables, draining off the excess marinade.
-
Warm the tortillas according to package directions or by heating them in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds per side.
-
Divide the drained vegetable filling equally among the warm tortillas.
-
Fold the bottom edge of each tortilla up over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly to enclose the filling completely.
