Directions
Step 1
Heat a medium skillet over medium heat and add the oil.

Stir in the refried beans, ground cumin, garlic powder, and chili powder. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring until the beans are warmed through and seasoned evenly.
Step 3
Warm the tortillas on a dry skillet or in the microwave for 10-15 seconds each to make them pliable.

Spread 1/2 cup of the seasoned refried beans down the center of each tortilla.
Step 5
Top each tortilla with 1/4 cup of rice, 2 tablespoons of shredded cheddar cheese, 2 tablespoons of salsa, and 1 tablespoon of sour cream.
Step 6
If desired, sprinkle chopped cilantro on top for extra flavor.
Step 7
Fold the sides of the tortilla inward and then roll it tightly from the bottom up to form the burrito shape.
Step 8
Optionally, toast the finished burritos in a dry skillet over medium heat for 1-2 minutes on each side for a crisp exterior.
Step 9
Serve immediately or wrap tightly in foil for a portable meal.
