up&#8230;most recipes call for dry rice, and my fail-safe go-to method of using rice up is to make fried rice.\u00c2\u00a0 This is not the best choice if the rice you have leftover is from the production of a GIGANTIC pan of fried rice.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>We grabbed spinach tortillas and three canned goods.\u00c2\u00a0 This was such a satisfying, easy and yummy dinner.\u00c2\u00a0 So wonderful that we had it twice for dinner (and one other time with eggs for breakfast!).<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span

full) burritos, and there was at least 1 (maybe 2) more servings of the rice and beans left.\u00c2\u00a0 Matt loved it!\u00c2\u00a0 And looking at the pictures now makes me wish we had some more for
