Make Ahead Bean Burrito Or Taco Filling (Oamc) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    Seasoned Rice
    1 cup uncooked brown rice
    4 cups water
    1 tablespoon chili powder
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    1 tablespoon paprika
    1/2 teaspoon black pepper
    1/2 tablespoon ground coriander
    1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
    1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
    1/2 tablespoon salt
    1/2 tablespoon dried oregano
    1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, to taste)
    Bean Mixture
    4 (15 ounce) cans black beans
    2 (15 1/2 ounce) cans pinto beans
    4 cups frozen sweet corn
    1 (10 ounce) jar salsa
    1 teaspoon cumin
    salt
    1 tablespoon cinnamon
    1 teaspoon garlic powder
    1 teaspoon oregano
    1 red onion, minced
    1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
    1 cup monterey jack cheese, shredded
    2 limes, juice of
Preparation
    Combine rice, water and seasonings in a saucepan, and bring to a boil.
    Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 35-40 minutes, or until tender. All the water might not be evaporated. Don't worry about this.
    Remove from heat, and cool.
    Place black beans and pinto beans into a colander or strainer, and rinse.
    Transfer to a large bowl. Add corn, onion, spices and salsa, and toss to mix.
    Mix in rice and cheese.
    Fill quart-sized freezer bags with 3 cups of this mixture. That works best for our family of 5. Freeze.
    Defrost and heat through before filling tacos or burritos. 1/2 cup serving per taco-sized tortilla works very well. Serve with sour cream and/or salsa, and fresh cilantro.
