Cheesy Tofu Burritos

As part of my plant-based meal prep series, I’m sharing one of my favorite hacks! Freezing your burritos!! It is a game-changer when you are in a pinch and want something delicious! This recipe makes 6-8 burritos so keep that in mind if you want fewer servings.

  • 6-8 large tortillas, I used Siete burrito size

  • 2 cups cooked rice

  • 2 bell peppers, thinly sliced

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 1 tsp chili powder

  • 1 tsp cumin

  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

  • 1 can of black beans, drained and rinsed

  • 1 block extra firm tofu

  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast

  • 1 tsp salt/pep

  • 1 tsp onion powder

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • 1/2 tsp cumin

  • 1 tsp paprika

  • 1/2 cup vegan cheese shreds

Directions:

  1. Start by cooking your thinly sliced bell peppers in a frying pan

  2. Add the olive oil, salt, chili powder, cumin, and garlic powder to the peppers

  3. Cook until soft and charred to your liking

  4. Next, make your cheesy tofu scramble! Add crumbled tofu to a warmed pan

  5. Add the nutritional yeast, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, cumin, and paprika to the tofu and stir

  6. Cook for 5-6 minutes. Add water if needed to loosen it up!

  7. Sprinkle the cheese on top of the tofu, cover with a lid, and turn the heat off

  8. Let the cheese steam for 1-2 minutes

  9. At this time you can season your beans if desired!

  10. Steam your tortillas so they are pliable

  11. Add a 1/4-1/3 cup of tofu to the tortilla

  12. Layer a few cooked peppers, rice, and a few tablespoons of black beans in the tortilla

  13. Roll away from you, tucking the sides in as you roll

  14. Wrap in a piece of foil and repeat until you are out of ingredients! I got 6 burritos!

  15. Store in a zipped freezer bag up to 6 weeks in the freezer

  16. When ready to enjoy, remove foil and microwave for 5-6 minutes on 50% power level

  17. Enjoy as is or add some hot sauce, avocado, or salsa!

Vegan blogger with a message to share:

Veganism doesn't have to be hard, unappetizing, or unhealthy. I here to show people how to make delicious healthy recipes free of many allergens like gluten but with an extra healthy twist. Many of the recipes are completley grain-free, refined sugar-free, oil-free, and made with ingredients that are of course plant based and as close to the whole plant form as possible. There less processed it is, the better. I also write blog posts on living a vegan lifestyle. Veganism isn't just about not eat animals and their byproducts, but also not buying leather or buying cosmetic products from companies who test on animals. I am here to help people on their journey to a life free of cruelty but full of positivity and happiness. I share my vegan story, cruelty free skin care routine, makeup routines, eco-friendly household products, ethical fashion, yoga and meditation, zero waste essentials, how to throw a vegan party, pantry essentials, and so many more!
