Ingredients

  • 1 cup cooked white or brown rice

  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 yellow onion, chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)

  • 1/2 cup chopped tomatoes

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, mix the cooked rice with lime juice, salt, and cilantro. Set aside.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and red bell pepper. Sauté for 5–7 minutes, until softened.
  3. Stir in chili powder, cumin, and salt. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Add corn and black beans to the skillet and cook for another 2–3 minutes, until heated through. Remove from heat.
  5. Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.
  6. Assemble the burritos: Spread a layer of cilantro-lime rice, then add the bean and veggie mixture, avocado slices, lettuce, tomatoes, and red onion.
  7. Top with hot sauce or salsa, if desired.
  8. Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll tightly to close. Serve immediately or wrap in foil for later.
