1.
Prepare barbecue grill for direct cooking.

Meanwhile, cut tomatoes in half lengthwise. Remove seeds. Grill tomatoes, skin-side down, on grid over hot coals about 5 minutes or until skin is blackened and tomatoes are very tender. Combine cilantro, jalapeño pepper, red onion and garlic in food processor; process using on/off pulsing action until finely chopped. Transfer to microwavable bowl. Place tomatoes, water, lime juice, cumin and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt in food processor; process until smooth. Add to pepper mixture; keep warm.

Burritos are best served just after assembly. Store leftovers as separate components and assemble just before serving. Heat assembled burrito in microwave oven.
