03 - Shred lettuce, dice tomato, and finely chop red onion. Prepare any optional toppings.
04 - Warm tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for 10 to 15 seconds to enhance pliability.
05 - Place a tortilla flat. Spoon ¼ cup cooked rice along the center, followed by ¼ of the beans, 2 tablespoons corn (if using), lettuce, tomato, onion, 3 tablespoons salsa, cheese, and cilantro as desired.
06 - Fold in sides and roll tightly from the bottom to enclose fillings. Repeat with remaining tortillas and ingredients.
