Ingredients

Method

Position rack in top third of oven; preheat to 400°F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. In small saucepan, heat 1 tbsp of the oil over medium heat; cook garlic and chili powder, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add beans, 1/4 tsp of the salt and 1/4 cup water; using potato masher, mash until in chunky paste. Cook, stirring, until heated through, about 2 minutes. Set aside.

In large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tbsp of the remaining oil over medium heat; cook green onions for 2 minutes. Add chicken & vegetables from Roasted Chicken & Veggies With Lemon Herb Rice, cumin and remaining 1/2 tsp salt; cook, stirring, until heated through, about 2 minutes. 

In bowl, stir together rice from Big Batch White Rice or Big Batch Brown Rice, cilantro, lime juice and remaining 1 tbsp oil until combined. Divide rice mixture among tortillas; top with bean mixture, chicken mixture and cheddar. Fold up bottoms of tortillas; fold in sides and roll up. Place, seam side down, on prepared pan. Bake, flipping halfway through, until golden, about 15 minutes. Cut each burrito in half; serve with Guacamole and Pico de Gallo (if using).
