Here is how you make Brown Rice and Lentil Burritos:

Cook the brown rice as directed on the package. Boil the lentils for about 20 minutes, then drain and rinse. This helps them cook without using too much liquid later. Add the lentils to a pan and saute for a minute at medium heat. Add the onion flakes and minced garlic. Cook for a few minutes and then add the broth. Cover and allow to simmer until the lentils are soft. The length of cooking time can vary, so just keep checking! Preheat oven to 350 at this point. Add the rice to the pan. Add the cumin, chili powder, and garlic powder and season to your own taste, you could also substitute your own taco seasoning. Divide amongst the 4 tortillas. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of cheese on each burrito (this can be reduced!). Roll up and bake until they are crunchy on the outside, about 10 minutes.
