A hearty and flavorful Vegan Breakfast Burrito filled with tofu scramble, sautéed vegetables, beans, and creamy avocado. This protein-packed, plant-based wrap makes a perfect quick breakfast, brunch, or meal prep option.

Ingredients

  • 14 oz firm tofu, drained and crumbled
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened plant-based milk (optional for creaminess)
  • 1 can (15 oz) black beans or pinto beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 cup spinach or kale, chopped
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1/4 cup salsa or hot sauce
  • 4 large flour tortillas (or whole wheat or gluten-free wraps)
  • Optional: fresh cilantro, lime wedges

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  2. Crumble tofu into the pan and cook for 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Add turmeric, nutritional yeast, salt, pepper, and plant-based milk. Stir well until the tofu becomes soft and resembles scrambled eggs. Remove from heat.
  4. In another pan, sauté onion and bell pepper for 4 minutes until softened. Add spinach and cook until wilted. Stir in beans and cherry tomatoes, heating through.
  5. Warm tortillas in a skillet or microwave until pliable.
  6. Assemble burritos by layering tofu scramble, sautéed vegetables, avocado slices, and salsa in the center of each tortilla.
  7. Fold in the sides and roll up tightly. Slice in half if desired and serve with extra salsa or lime wedges.

Notes

  • Let fillings cool slightly before assembling to prevent soggy burritos.
  • Use gluten-free tortillas for a gluten-free option.
  • Add jalapeños or chili flakes for a spicy version.
  • For extra protein, add quinoa or more beans.
  • Perfect for meal prep—wrap and freeze for up to 2 months.
