Cooking Steps

Cook Rice
1
  • In a small pot, combine rice, 1¼ cups water, ½ cup enchilada sauce, ½ tsp salt, and a drizzle of oil (2¼ cups water, 1 cup enchilada sauce, and 1 tsp salt for 4 servings). Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes.

  • Keep covered off heat for at least 5 minutes. (You'll use the rice in Step 5.)

Prep & Make Pico
2
  • While rice cooks, wash and dry produce.

  • Quarter limes. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens; mince whites. Finely dice tomatoTrim and quarter zucchini lengthwise; cut crosswise into ¼-inch-thick quarter-moons. Peel and mince or grate garlic.

  • In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise and juice from two lime wedges (four wedges for 4 servings).

  • In a separate small bowl, combine scallion whites, tomato, juice from two lime wedges (four wedges for 4), and a pinch of salt and pepper.

Cook Zucchini
3
  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add zucchini and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until zucchini is browned and softened, 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

  • Turn off heat; transfer to a plate. Wipe out pan.

Cook Beans
4
  • Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for zucchini over medium-high heat. Add beans and their liquid, half the cumin, and ½ tsp salt (all the cumin and 1 tsp salt for 4 servings). Cook, stirring occasionally and mashing about half the beans with the back of a spoon, until beans are warmed through and liquid has mostly reduced, 2-3 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.

  • Turn off heat; transfer to a third small bowl. Wash out pan.

Assemble Burritos
5
  • Wrap tortillas in damp paper towels. Microwave until pliable, 30 seconds.

  • Lay tortillas on a clean work surface and place ⅓ cup rice in a line on the bottom third of each tortilla. Top with ⅓ cup beans, 1 TBSP pico de gallo (draining first), and as much zucchini as you like. TIP: Save leftover rice, beans, and zucchini for serving.

  • Fold bottom of each tortilla over filling, then fold over left and right sides toward filling. Roll up tortillas, starting with filled sides, to form burritos.

  • Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for beans over medium heat. Add burritos, seam sides down; cook until lightly browned and crispy, 1-2 minutes per side (be sure to flip carefully to keep all that deliciousness intact!).

Heat Sauce
6
  • Place remaining enchilada sauce in a fourth small microwave-safe bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Microwave until warmed through, 60-90 seconds.

Serve
7
  • Divide burritos between shallow bowls. Top with enchilada sauce and scallion greens. Drizzle with lime mayo, remaining pico de gallo (draining first), and as much hot sauce as you like.

  • Serve with remaining rice, remaining beans, remaining zucchini, and remaining lime wedges on the side.

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavor: Many enjoyed the taste, though some found it bland; adding extra seasoning or hot sauce boosted flavor 🌶️.
  • Ease of prep: While tasty, several noted it was time-consuming with many steps and dishes to wash.
  • Suggestions: Consider adding cheese for extra richness; some preferred different veggies like mushrooms instead of zucchini.
  • Portions: Generous servings; many had leftovers, with one customer getting three meals from it.
  • Texture: A few found it too liquidy to roll easily; others suggested pre-cooked rice for easier prep.
