    Step 1
  • If the cooked rice has cooled, reheat it in the microwave. Add the cheddar cheese until melted. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
  • Step 2
  • In a small bowl, mash the avocado and lime juice with a fork until smooth.
  • Step 3
  • Place the tortilla on a cutting board. Spoon the mashed avocado onto the tortilla and spread it out, leaving a 2-cm border. In the bottom third of the tortilla, line the rice, beans, carrots, and salsa in a strip. Fold once tightly, then fold in the sides and continue rolling the burrito. The avocado should help the burrito hold its shape. Cut in half. Wrap in a paper towel, then in foil. Serve at room temperature.
