The vegan breakfast burrito became a staple for me in my first year of college, when I decided it would be a great idea to enroll for an 8 AM class all the way across campus.

I would heat up a burrito in the morning, wrap it in paper towels, and eat it while I got dressed or – if I’m running late – bring it with me to class.

Today’s homemade burrito recipe reminds me a lot of the Amy version, and only one large burrito pack in More than 24 grams of protein!

Vegetables: I’ve used cubes of chilli and spinach for burrito in the video and photos here, but there are many different vegetable combinations you can use.

Try substituting diced sweet potato peppers, adding broccoli or chopped zucchini, or adding some carrots, mushrooms, or onions.

Wraps: Feel free to use your favorite soft tortilla. Tortilla chips work best, although corn tortillas are also good if you don’t mind that they may burst and be more messy when you eat them.

Use eight or ten inch diameter tortillas for the larger burrito, or the size tortilla (six inch) for smaller ones. Whole grains, multi-grains, spinach, low-carb, or keto tortillas are also good to use.

Free version of tofu: For burritos without tofu or soy, you can substitute vegan scrambled eggs (like eggs only), mashed white beans, or cooked black beans. Or, change it up completely by stuffing your homemade tortilla with a crumble Veggie burgers Or these Cauliflower buffalo wings.

How to make a burrito

Start by greasing a non-stick frying pan or adding a little oil or spray to prevent sticking.

Fry the vegetables with garlic, if using it, over medium heat in a skillet until they begin to turn brown.

Drain and crumble the tofu in a skillet and break it up with a spoon. Add curry powder, onion powder, salt and turmeric.

Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the tofu is hot and the excess liquid has evaporated. It should resemble a scrambled egg.

Add a handful of spinach or kale if desired, then divide the filling in the middle of each tortilla. I like to gently heat the tortilla for a few seconds before filling it so it’s easy to roll.

Add any toppings, such as vegan cheese, hash brown, salsa, or avocado slices and wrap tightly.

Vegetarian burritos can be served straight away, refrigerated, or frozen in a resealable bag or airtight container. (See freezer instructions below.)

To freeze burritos: Let the burrito cool, then roll it tightly in tin foil. Put it in one layer in a large, resealable bag and remove excess air from the bag. Freeze for up to 2 months.

When you’re ready to eat, take it out of tin foil and place it on a microwave-safe dish and wrap it in a slightly damp paper towel. Heat two minutes, then turn over and heat for 30 seconds until cooked through. Alternatively, you can reheat a vegan breakfast burrito on a parchment-lined baking tray in the oven until evenly heated. (Delete a paper towel to release the oven.)
