Easy Rice & Bean Wraps

I guess one good thing of laying on the couch feeling super sick is I've been able to post several recipes in my stack. But it's also making me hungry and I can't eat anything. This is another recipe I've been making for at least 10 years, probably more. It seems like my original recipe came from Albertsons way back when they used to have recipe cards by certain ingredients. These are easy and yummy.


Ingredients:
2 tbsp margarine or butter
1 package (6.8 oz.) Rice A Roni Spanish Rice (the last time I made these I used Uncle Bens Spanish rice and it was actually easier. I always had hard rice in my burritos when I used the Rice A Roni because I could never cook it just right)
1 jar (16 oz.) salsa
1 can (15 oz.) black or red kidney beans, drained, rinsed
1 cup Green Giant Mexicorn, drained (I use the small can, I'm not sure how many ounces it is, but I don't measure a cup out, I use the whole can.)
8 flour tortillas, warmed (I of course only use the tortillas you have to brown on the stove)
shredded cheddar cheese, optional
sour cream, optional
Directions:
In large skillet over medium-high heat, saute rice-vermicelli mix with margarine until vermicelli is golden brown (I used microwavable Uncle Ben's Spanish rice then just put in the pan)
Add 2 cups water, salsa and special seasonings (again if you use the Uncle Ben's you won't have special seasonings to ad and you probably don't need to add water either) bring to a boil and reduce heat to low.
Cover; simmer 15 to 20 minutes or until rice is tender (probably only about 5 minutes if you use the Uncle Ben's
Stir in beans and corn; cook just a few minutes; let stand 5 minutes before serving
Serve in tortillas with cheese and sour cream

Chili Burritos

My sister makes these and said they were good so I thought I'd give them a try. They were good. Kyle loved them, Karson hated them, and of course Easton ate them. I don't love chili, so this is a good way to eat it.

1 Can Chili (more for more burritos)
Flour Tortillas (I only use the ones that you have to warm on the stove)
Cheese
Sour Cream

Cook Chili and warm tortillas. Spread Chili in tortillas (next time I will put cheese inside the tortillas too). I think my sister said she bakes them for a bit then puts cheese on top and bakes them again until the cheese is melted. I just put cheese on top and cooked them for like 10 minutes at 325.
