Ingredients
- 2 cups leftover chili (see note 1)
- 4 (10-inch) flour tortillas ("burrito" size)
- 2 cups cooked rice (see note 2)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- minced fresh cilantro optional
- salsa and sour cream for serving, optional
Instructions
- Lay a tortilla on a flat surface. Arrange about 1/2 cup chili in the middle of the tortilla. Top with 1/2 cup rice and 1/4 cup cheese. Sprinkle with cilantro if desired.
- Fold two sides of the burrito in, then fold the remaining two sides over to form a small packet. Please seam-side down on a plate. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling ingredients.
- Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat lightly with nonstick spray if desired. Heat the filled burritos on one side until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Carefully flip and continue heating on the second side. Serve with salsa and sour cream if desired.
Notes
- Chili: If your chili is super watery, set it in a fine-mesh strainer over a bowl for 10 minutes, pressing down lightly with the back of a spoon, to remove excess liquid.
- Rice: Any kind of leftover rice works. I always keeps bag of Baked Rice in the freezer at all times, but you can use cooked brown rice, leftover Mexican Rice, or even cooked quinoa.
