I'm having a REALLY hard time getting a hot, healthy dinner on the table each evening. I think throwing everything in a crockpot in the morning might be the solution, at least a few days out of the week. I've found lots of recipes online, but they're all fleishig or milchig. I need PARVE recipes. Thanks in advance!

I've made barley black bean corn burritos a few times and they were really good. I can't find my recipe but here's a similar one. I know mine didn't have the chicken broth in it; it was pareve.

1 (15 oz) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (10 oz) can diced tomatoes with green chiles, undrained
1 cup uncooked fine barley
2 cups fat-free, less sodium chicken broth
3/4 cup frozen whole-kernel corn
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
18 (6 1/2 inch) flour tortillas
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons (4 1/2 oz) shredded reduced fat sharp cheddar cheese
9 cups thinly sliced curly leaf lettuce
2 1/4 cups salsa
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons fat-free sour cream

1. Place first 11 ingredients in a 3-4 qt. cp; stir well. Cover with lid; cook on low heat setting 4 to 5 hours or until barley is tender and liquid is absorbed. Stir in cilantro.

2. Heat tortillas according to package directions. Spoon 1/3 cup barley mixture down center of each tortilla; sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon cheese. Roll up. Place 1 cup lettuce on each of 9 plates; top each with 2 burritos. Spoon 1/4 cup salsa and 2 tablespoons sour cream over each serving.
