Description

These tofu burritos are packed with seasoned crumbled tofu, fluffy rice, black beans, and fresh toppings, all wrapped in warm flour tortillas for a hearty and satisfying plant based meal.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 14 ounces extra firm tofu, pressed and crumbled
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cups cooked rice
  • 1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup corn kernels
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1 large avocado, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 4 large flour tortillas

Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. In a small bowl, mix chili powder, ground cumin, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Add olive oil to the skillet and warm briefly.
  4. Add the crumbled tofu to the skillet, sprinkle with the spice mixture, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly golden. Stir in black beans and corn and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes until heated through.
  5. Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until soft and pliable.
  6. Spoon cooked rice onto each tortilla, top with the tofu mixture, then add diced tomatoes, sliced avocado, and chopped cilantro.
  7. Fold in the sides of each tortilla, roll tightly into burritos, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Press the tofu for at least 15 minutes before cooking for better browning and texture.
  • Do not overfill the tortillas to prevent tearing while rolling.
  • The filling can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • For extra heat, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the spice mix.
