Vegetarian Burritos image

Provides the perfect protein combination....beans and corn. This is a recipe from the Moosewood Restaurant. (I've updated the # of servings...I agree with Longhorm Mama....1 burrito is reasonable serving..thanks for the input) The filling also freezes well. I make a big batch and freeze the filling in ziploc bags and then assemble and bake when needed.

The recipe notes that you can substitute rice for the quinoa. Has anyone tried this? I'm looking for a gluten-free option.
