Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all the ingredients and prepare them as needed: heat the carnitas, warm the black beans, and cook the Mexican rice.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Burrito

    Lay the 12-inch flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. In the center, layer the carnitas, black beans, Mexican rice, guacamole, and sour cream.

  3. 3

    Roll the Burrito

    Carefully fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll from the bottom up to secure all ingredients inside. Ensure the burrito is tightly rolled.

  4. 4

    Top the Burrito

    Place the rolled burrito in a serving dish. Pour the cheese dip over the top and add a generous helping of pico de gallo.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Cut the burrito in half if desired, and serve immediately with additional guacamole or sour cream on the side.
