Jared's Burritos

Jared has been craving burritos for a while and we decided to make our burritos vegetarian style. Preparation was quick and easy!

Ingredients:
1 bag yellow rice
1 can black beans
Burrito size flour tortillas
1 can refried beans
1 package taco seasoning mix
1 package of Mexican or taco cheese, shredded
Salsa, to taste
Hot Sauce, to taste
Sour cream, optional

Directions:
1) Cook rice according to package. In the meantime, rinse black beans and prepare to warm.
2) Heat up refried beans. Add half of the taco seasoning mix and stir. Warm up black beans.
3) Warm up flour tortillas.
4) Add 1 scoop of rice, 1/2 scoop of black beans, 1/2 scoop seasoned refried beans, cheese, salsa, hot sauce, and sour cream.
5) Wrap tightly and enjoy. Serve with salsa and sour cream on the side.

Husband Rating: A
More filling than the burrito looks -- pace yourself! Chicken or beef can be added for a meat burrito.

Wife Rating: A
Considering I am not a fan of burritos (not really sure why), I was pleasantly surprised. We did not have sour cream, which would have made it even better!

We'll make these again - most likely with ground seasoned turkey meat.
