1
Heat the oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the canned chilies and onion, and cook until softened, 5-7 minutes.

Add the rice, water, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-18 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Remove from the heat and stir in the beans.
3
Place some cheese in the center of each tortilla, then spoon the rice and bean mixture on top. Drizzle with salsa verde and roll up the tortilla.

Optional: Before serving, heat a skillet over medium heat and toast the wrapped burrito 1 to 2 minutes per side until lightly golden and crisp.

Meal Prep Tip: This recipe is freezer-friendly! If making in bulk, wrap each burrito in foil and store in the freezer. To reheat, remove the burrito from the foil and wrap in a paper towel. Microwave for 2-4 minutes, flipping halfway through. For a crisper tortilla, once the burrito has been reheated, bake at 375°F (190°C) for 6-10 minutes or pan fry over medium heat until toasted and crisp, 1-2 minutes per side.
