vegan breakfast burrito

A high-protein vegan breakfast burrito filled with tofu scramble, black beans, avocado, and fresh veggies. Perfect for meal prep.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil (or avocado oil)
  • 1 (14 oz) block firm tofu, pressed and crumbled
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt (plus more to taste)
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric (for color, optional)
  • 1/2 red bell pepper, diced
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1/2 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, diced (or 1 small tomato)
  • 1/2 avocado, diced
  • 2 Tbsp chopped cilantro (optional)
  • 2 large flour tortillas (burrito-size)
  • Optional for serving: salsa, hot sauce, vegan cheese, lime wedges

Instructions

  1. Cook the tofu scramble: Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add crumbled tofu, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and turmeric. Cook 5–7 minutes, stirring often, until the tofu is hot and lightly browned.
  2. Add veggies & beans: Stir in diced bell pepper and cook 2–3 minutes until slightly softened. Add black beans and tomatoes and cook 1–2 minutes just to warm through. Stir in green onions and cilantro.
  3. Warm tortillas: Warm tortillas in a dry skillet for 15–20 seconds per side (or microwave 10–15 seconds) so they roll easily.
  4. Assemble: Divide tofu mixture between tortillas. Top with avocado (and salsa/vegan cheese if using).
  5. Wrap: Fold in the sides, then roll tightly into burritos.
  6. Optional crisp: Place seam-side down in a dry skillet for 1–2 minutes per side until lightly golden. Slice and serve.

Notes

  • For crispier burritos, toast in a skillet after wrapping.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Add hot sauce or salsa for extra flavor.
