Additional Fillings and Toppings

Add the sliced green onions and freshly chopped cilantro, then stir everything well to mix the flavors evenly.
  2. Assemble the burrito: Lay one tortilla flat on a plate. Start by adding a generous scoop of the seasoned brown rice in the center of the tortilla. Layer the bean and corn salad on top of the rice. Then add some salsa, shredded lettuce, vegan shredded cheese, vegan sour cream, and guacamole. Optionally, sprinkle with red pepper flakes for a bit of heat.
  3. Fold and serve: Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it tightly to encase all the fillings. Wrap the burrito in foil for easy handling and slice it in half with a sharp knife. Serve immediately and enjoy your hearty vegan burrito!
