I just wanted to thank everyone for their inspired burrito suggestions. I will try them all! Until then, I have come up with a surprisingly delicious no-brainer - the naked burrito. Yes, it's a burrito without a tortilla.

1. Dump cooked brown rice in a bowl.

2. Top with beans of choice (heated pinto, black, or ff refried, canned Ok).

3. Spoon on a dollop or two of salsa (this is the ingredient that will make or break the dish, so go for something really good).

4. Top with shredded vegies and condiments of choice (shredded lettuce, tomatoes, and onions are a must, but after that, there are no rules. Steamed assorted vegies, ff cheese and/or yogurt, etc)

Enjoy! This meal is fast, delicious, colorful, and will satisfy most burrito cravings. btw, I made an amazing discovery I'm sure I've mentioned before, but it's worth saying again: Safeway's "Southwest Salsa" (bottled) is the best prepared salsa I've ever tried. I am a real snob about jarred salsa, usually preferring to make my own. But I love this stuff! If you haven't tried it, do. It's good. The Medium level of hotness is just perfect in my opinion.
