Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup cooked rice (brown or white) Can use leftover rice to save time.
  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup corn, frozen or canned
  • 1 bell pepper, diced Use your choice of color.
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1/4 cup salsa Your favorite kind.
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • to taste salt and pepper
  • 4 large flour or corn tortillas

Method
 

Preparation
  1. If you're starting from scratch, cook 1 cup of rice as per package instructions, or simply use leftover rice to save time.
  2. In a medium pan over medium heat, add a splash of water (or a dash of olive oil if you prefer) and toss in the diced bell pepper. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes or until tender.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the cooked rice, black beans, corn, sautéed bell pepper, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until everything is well combined.
  4. Lay a tortilla flat on a plate. Spoon about 1 cup of the mixture onto the center of the tortilla. Top with avocado slices and a drizzle of salsa.
  5. Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it up tightly from the bottom. You might want to use a little salsa to seal the edges.
  6. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling. Serve warm with additional salsa on the side for dipping.

Notes

Substitutions: Feel free to swap out the beans for chickpeas if they're more to your taste. Spinach or kale would also add a nice green touch! Timing is Key: For a delightful crunch, add fresh veggies like lettuce or tomatoes just before serving, keeping their freshness intact. Avoid Common Mistakes: Don’t overfill your burritos; it’ll make rolling them tricky and result in potential spillage! Got leftovers? Refrigerate wrapped in foil or in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat in a pan on low or in the microwave.
