5 large flour tortillas

1 can (15.25 oz / 432 g) black beans, drained and rinsed
1 1/2 cups (210 g) chopped cooked steak or chicken

Method

Spread 1/4 cup (40 g) rice on each tortilla, then share out the beans and meat and sprinkle each with 2-3 tbsp cheese.
Fold in the sides and roll each tortilla up tightly.
Melt 1 tbsp butter in a frying pan over medium heat and brown the burritos, seam side down first, on all sides, adding butter as needed. Leave to cool for 10 minutes.
Pack the burritos into a Tupperware freezer container, seal and freeze for up to 2 weeks.
To reheat, put a frozen burrito in the base of the Tupperware MicroPro Grill, close the cover in the grill position and microwave on high (1000 W) for 5-7 minutes. Serve with salsa.
