• 1 large, sliced Avocado
• 1 tbsp Olive oil
• 0.5 tsp Salt

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine the black beans, fresh corn kernels, cherry tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and jalapeño pepper (if using). Mix well to create the salsa.

Step 2

Drizzle the olive oil over the salsa, then season with salt and black pepper. Mix again and set aside.

Step 3

Warm the flour tortillas in a non-stick skillet over medium heat or wrap them in foil and warm in a 325°F (165°C) oven for 5 minutes.

Step 4

Place a warmed tortilla on a clean surface. Spread 1/2 cup of cooked rice down the center of the tortilla.

Step 5

Top the rice with 1/4 of the black bean and corn salsa mixture, followed by a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese.

Step 6

Add a dollop of sour cream and a few slices of avocado on top of the filling.

Step 7

Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards, then roll it tightly from the bottom to form a burrito.

Step 8

Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and fillings.

Step 9

Serve immediately, or wrap the burritos in foil to keep warm for later. Enjoy your Black Bean and Corn Salsa Burritos!
