Chef Paulo's 5-Minute Burritos


Ingredients:

  • 2 large flour tortillas
  • 1 can refried beans
  • 3/4 cup instant rice
  • Shredded cheese
  • 1 small Roma tomato (to be diced)
  • Shredded lettuce

Directions:
Open 1 can of refried beans. Microwave 3/4 cup of instant rice and equal parts water for 3 minutes. While rice is cooking, dice 1 small Roma tomato. After 3 minutes, add 2 or 3 large spoons of canned refried beans to the rice and microwave for 2 more minutes. Store the rest of the refried beans in the fridge. When the cooking is done, stir the mixture thoroughly (*Caution: contents will be hot*). Seasoning can be added, such as ground red pepper or seasoned salt for flavor. Apply the rice/bean mixture onto large flour tortilla and add shredded cheese, diced tomatoes, and shredded lettuce. Roll the tortilla, et voilà! 5-minute burritos.

Makes about 2 large burritos. Meat can be added, but this takes way too long.

Are you really that busy that you can only spare 5 minutes to make burritos? :-)
