Ingredients

  • 1 cup brown rice
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 ripe avocado, diced
  • 1 cup corn (canned or frozen)
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or a blend)
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
  • Sour cream for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a medium pot, combine the brown rice and vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 20-25 minutes until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.

  2. 2

    While the rice is cooking, in a bowl, combine black beans, corn, diced tomatoes, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

  3. 3

    Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and mix in the bean and corn mixture with the rice. Stir to combine well.

  4. 4

    Warm the flour tortillas in a large skillet over medium heat for about 10-15 seconds on each side until they are pliable.

  5. 5

    To assemble the burrito, place a generous amount of the rice and bean mixture in the center of each tortilla. Top with diced avocado and a sprinkle of shredded cheese.

  6. 6

    Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up from the bottom to enclose the filling completely.

  7. 7

    Heat the rolled burrito seam-side down in the skillet for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

  8. 8

    Serve warm, garnished with fresh cilantro and a side of sour cream if desired.
