 I posted a burrito recipe not long ago that freezes very well.  I make a 
 batch of 10 every weekend and put them in the freezer for convenience.  I've 
 changed the recipe since then.  I was using tofu, but I've eliminated that. 
  Here's the new one:
 
 Freezer Burritos
 
 2 cans black beans
 2-3 cups of cooked rice (your favorite kind)
 1 large onion
 3-4 cloves garlic
 dried basil, cumin, chili powder, cayenne pepper
 1 pkg flour tortillas, burrito size
 1 small can tomato sauce
 
 Saute onions and garlic in your favorite oil sub (I like to use balsamic 
 vinegar or cooking sherry).  When onion is soft, add spices (sorry no 
 measurements, I just throw on what looks good), cook a couple of more 
 minutes and remove from heat.
 In a large bowl, dump 1 can of beans with juice, drain the other can and 
 then add the beans to the bowl.  Add the can of tomato sauce.  Mash the 
 beans until most are mashed, but leave some unmashed.  Add cooked rice and 
 onion mixture.  Stir well.
 Roll up burritos, freeze.  These make good snacks, lunch or supper with a 
 salad, and I love them for breakfast.  Enjoy!
