4. Lay a tortilla flat and spoon about ½ cup beans into the center. Top with a ¼ cup cheese and 6 tablespoons cooked rice. 

5. Fold the sides in, then roll tightly from the bottom up to form a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling. 

6. Wrap each burrito in foil or parchment paper. Place in a freezer- a safe container or zip-top bag. Store for up to 3 months.
