Receta Make-Ahead Chicken Burrito
Leftover chicken, beans and rice can be put to good use making burritos for tomorrow's lunch, or frozen for a quick meal later. The recipe below makes one burrito, but I like to make several from leftovers on hand, and freeze them for busy days. Use leftover refried beans spread on the tortilla, or if using whole black beans, fold them into filling.
