Saute the frozen onions
and green peppers in a few tablespoons of water in
a skillet. Drain
and rinse the beans and place in a skillet and mash with
a potato masher. Add
the cooked rice, corn, spices and water. Heat 5 to 10
minutes until most of
water is absorbed, stirring occasionally.
Heat the tortillas quickly
(just to soften) in a preheated skillet, a
toaster oven, or a microwave.
Place a line of bean mixture down the middle
of each tortilla, add
a teaspoon of salsa and any of the other toppings as
desired. Fold
up 1/2 inch on each side, tuck in the top edge and roll into
a burrito. Serve
immediately, topped with additional salsa if desired.
The leftover bean mixture
can be kept in the refrigerator and reheated in
the microwave prior
to assembly.
