Prep vegetables
Cut the onion into small dice and finely dice the bell pepper.
- 2
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and bell pepper; sauté until translucent and soft, about 4–5 minutes.
- 3
Add minced garlic; cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- 4
Stir in ground cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, and salt; cook for 30 seconds to bloom the spices.
- 5
Add cooked pinto beans and cooked white rice to the skillet; mix well and warm through, mashing a few beans for creaminess if desired, about 2–3 minutes.
- 6
Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable, about 15–20 seconds per side.
- 7
Spoon a generous amount of the bean–rice mixture onto each tortilla. Top with shredded cheddar cheese.
- 8
Fold in the sides and roll up into a burrito. If desired, toast burrito seam-side down in the hot skillet until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is lightly browned, about 1–2 minutes per side.
- 9
Serve the bean burros immediately. Additional toppings can be added at the table if desired.
