Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the diced red onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the diced bell peppers, zucchini, and corn kernels to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender but still slightly crisp.
Sprinkle in the cumin, paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the vegetables evenly with the spices. Remove from heat.
Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.
Assemble the burritos: On each tortilla, first layer 1/2 cup of cooked rice, followed by 1/3 cup of black beans, a generous scoop of the cooked veggie mixture, and a few slices of avocado.
Sprinkle each burrito with fresh cilantro and give a squeeze of lime juice for added flavor.
Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to create a burrito.
Optional: If desired, lightly sear the burritos in a skillet with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to create a crispy outer layer.
Serve immediately with extra lime wedges on the side. Enjoy your soy-free veggie burrito!
