Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add diced onion and bell pepper; sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the cooked rice, black beans, corn, ground cumin, chili powder, and salt to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for another 5 minutes until heated through.
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Spoon about 1/6 of the filling onto each tortilla and roll it up tightly, placing seams down in a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Pour the enchilada sauce over the burritos evenly, ensuring they are completely covered.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese generously over the top of the sauce-covered burritos.
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with chopped cilantro, and serve with sour cream and optional avocado slices.
