When I have a little free time and some leftover rice, I love putting together a batch of these Southwestern Wraps. These wraps are simply delicious! Not to mention, they are freezer friendly! Another bonus, they are versatile too. You can use any leftover rice you have, the beans of your choice, your favorite cheese. Well, I think you get the idea. Today, I will show you the way I love to put these together for a quick lunch.
Layers of brown rice, black beans, salsa, corn and cheese on a flour tortilla! Wrapped up and heated in the oven to make for a filling and yummy wrap for lunch or a last minute dinner! My preference of tortillas is whole wheat flour tortillas. But as with the rest of the ingredients, you can use what you have on hand. I have used cheddar and jalapeno flour tortillas for this wrap before, and they were delicious! Today, I will share my standard go-to recipe. Feel free to follow or change it up with the ingredients you prefer!
