Vegan Burrito Ingredients

I like to use vegan cheddar shreds in this recipe, they melt a little and help hold the burritos together. But if you don’t like to use them, that’s ok! Simply skip them all together.

And I used 10 inch burritos for this recipe. You could use 8 inch to save some carbs and calories, but they will be a little harder to roll up.

How to Make a Vegan Black Bean Burrito

I love to make a big batch of these vegetable burritos and freeze them for meal prep dinners and lunches. It’s especially easy as you can make 10 servings with 1 onion, 1 bell pepper, 1 can of beans. This ensures I use up all the ingredients and don’t have leftover prep in the fridge.

How to Make Meal Prep Burritos:

1. Spray a large skillet with olive oil spray and heat over medium-high heat.
2. Add in the onions, bell peppers and jalapeños. Cook for 5 minutes, until the onions start to soften.
3. Add in the corn and beans, mix well and cook for 2-3 minutes until the corn is defrosted and the beans and corn are warmed through.
4. Sprinkle over the taco seasoning, and add in the cooked quinoa or rice, and 2 tablespoons of water. Mix together ensuring the seasoning is well distributed.
5. Move the taco filling to a large bowl, and spray the pan again with olive oil (no need to clean it).
6. Lay out a tortilla on a clean dry surface. Add about 1/2 cup of the taco mixture, add 1/8 cup vegan cheese, and some cilantro. Fold in the sides of the tortilla, and then roll the burrito up.
7. Add the burrito, seam side down in the hot pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned.
8. Meanwhile, keep making and rolling up your vegan burritos, adding to the hot pan and browning.
9. To serve, cut in half and serve with desired toppings.

Meal Prep Guide:

1. After assembling the burritos and browning them in the hot pan, cool completely.
2. Wrap each individually in parchment paper, and place in a gallon freezer bag or reusable freezer container.
3. Stack the burritos in the bag or container and freeze. Will hold for 1-2 months in the freezer.
4. To reheat, place burrito (still in the parchment paper) in the microwave and cook for 1 minute, flip and cook for an additional 1 minute.
5. You can also defrost, heat a skillet over medium-low, spray with olive oil, and heat for 3 minutes each side until warmed through.
