Drain and rinse the canned black beans under cold water.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the black beans, ground cumin, paprika, and salt to the skillet. Stir well and cook for 3-4 minutes until warmed through.
Remove the black beans from heat and mash slightly with the back of a fork to create a chunky texture.
Warm the gluten-free tortillas on a dry skillet or in the microwave for 20-30 seconds to make them pliable.
Assemble the burrito by layering the center of the tortilla with 1/4 cup cooked quinoa, 1/4 of the black bean mixture, a few slices of avocado, a drizzle of lime juice, 2 tablespoons of salsa, a handful of shredded lettuce, and a tablespoon of diced tomatoes. Add cilantro if using.
Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll it tightly from the bottom up to form a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and fillings.
Serve immediately, or toast the rolled burritos in a dry skillet over medium heat for 1-2 minutes per side to crisp up the tortilla.
Enjoy your gluten-free vegan burritos with extra salsa or guacamole on the side if desired!
