In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked rice, black beans, shredded cheddar cheese, salsa, ground cumin, chili powder, and salt. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Warm the tortillas in the microwave for 15-20 seconds to make them more pliable, or heat them individually in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few seconds on each side.
Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon about 3/4 cup of the filling mixture onto the lower third of the tortilla, leaving space on the edges for folding.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly from the bottom up, forming a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
If serving immediately, lightly grease a skillet with cooking spray or olive oil and heat the burritos over medium heat for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown and heated through.
If freezing for later, wrap each burrito tightly in aluminum foil or freezer-safe plastic wrap. Place wrapped burritos in a freezer-safe bag or container and freeze for up to 3 months.
To reheat from frozen, unwrap the burrito, place it in the microwave, and heat on high for 2-3 minutes, flipping halfway through. Alternatively, reheat in the oven by keeping it wrapped in foil and baking at 375°F (190°C) for 25-30 minutes until heated through.
