Place tortillas on work surface ad sprinkle 2 T. cheese in center of each, from left to right. Top cheese with a heaping 1/4 c. black beans. Place a heaping 1/2 c. rice mixture over beans then divide avocado pieces among tortillas. Fold up like an envelope; repeat with remaining tortillas.

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat top and bottom of burritos with Pam. Place 3 burritos in skillet, seam-side down; cook for 1-2 minutes or until lightly browned and crisp. Turn burritos over and cook another 2 minutes. Repeat with remaining burritos, reducing heat if they get too browned.
