Peanut Butter & Strawberry Quick Jam Burritos

From Vegetarian Times

8oz. fresh strawberries, hulled
3 TBS. agave nectar
4 8-inch whole wheat tortillas, warmed
8 TBS. crunchy or creamy all-natural peanut butter

1) Combine strawberries & agave in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat & cook 5-10 minutes, or until strawberries soften & juices thicken, stirring gently & often. Cool slightly.

2) Working with 1 tortilla at a time, warm tortillas directly over flames of gas burner until they are heated through & slightly charred but still pliable, moving them around on burner to ensure they cook evenly, about 20 seconds per side. Spoon 2 TBS. peanut butter down center of each tortilla. Spoon strawberry jam over peanut butter. Roll up tortillas, leaving one end open.

***You can substitute sliced apples or bananas for the jam***
