To prepare the beans, drain one can of pinto (or black) beans and rinse off excess liquid. In a bowl, add salt and pepper to the beans and fork mash. Set aside. Shred jack cheese and reserve.
To serve, layer each ingredient on a tortilla, leaving room at the edges for rolling the burrito. Place ingredients on tortilla in the following order: rice, beans, cheese, avocado, yogurt, and salsa. Roll tortilla into burrito.
