- 1 cup cooked rice
- 1 packet taco seasoning

Instructions
- Prepare all ingredients by draining and rinsing black beans, measuring out corn kernels, and ensuring rice is pre-cooked.

Tips
- * To ensure even seasoning distribution, mix the black beans, corn kernels, cooked rice, and taco seasoning thoroughly in the slow cooker. * Use a high-quality taco seasoning packet for the best flavor. * Don't overfill the tortillas, as this can make them difficult to roll and can result in filling falling out. * Experiment with different types of salsa and hot sauce to add an extra kick to your burritos. * Consider adding other toppings like diced bell peppers, shredded lettuce, or diced tomatoes to make your burritos even more delicious.
