Steps:

  • Combine rice and water in a saucepan, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 35 to 40 minutes, or until tender. Remove from heat, and cool.
  • Place black beans and pinto beans into a colander or strainer, and rinse. Add corn and diced tomatoes with green chilies, and toss to mix. Transfer to a large bowl, and mix in rice and cheese.
  • Divide the mixture evenly among the tortillas, and roll up. Wrap individually in plastic wrap, place into a large freezer bag, and freeze. Reheat as needed in the microwave for lunch or snacks.

LUNCH WRAPS FOR THE FREEZER

I originally got this recipe from Allrecipes.com, but have modified it over the years. These wraps are really tasty, but admittedly, are a bit dry and should be served with some sort of sauce on top (hot sauce, enchilada sauce, fresh salsa, or sour cream...etc.). These are cheap, filling, nutritious, and great to have hand in the freezer. I keep some in the freezer at work, and a bottle of Tapatio in my desk (or sometimes I even freeze individual-sized [appx 1/4 cup] homemade red chile sauce in snack-sized ziplocs). I usually use 2 tablespoons of my own taco seasoning mix, but specified one package below, for convenience. I often add additional veggies such as shredded carrots, diced bell pepper and onion, etc.
