🌯 Vegetarian Breakfast Burrito – Fresh, Filling, and Flavorful

This Vegetarian Breakfast Burrito is a vibrant, protein-packed start to your day — filled with flavorful tofu scramble, crisp veggies, creamy avocado, and zesty sauce, all wrapped in a warm tortilla. Perfect for busy mornings, weekend brunch, or meal prep. 🌱

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 burritos

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 block (14 oz) firm tofu, pressed and crumbled

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 tsp turmeric powder

  • 1 tsp smoked paprika

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • ½ tsp cumin

  • Salt & pepper, to taste

  • 1 medium red bell pepper, diced

  • 1 cup red onion, diced

  • 1 cup cooked diced potatoes (or crispy hash browns)

  • 1 ripe avocado, sliced

  • ¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped

  • 4 large flour tortillas

  • ¼ cup vegan chipotle mayo or spicy sauce

Instructions

  • Prepare the Tofu Scramble – Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add crumbled tofu, turmeric, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Stir well and cook for 5–6 minutes until lightly golden.

  • Cook the Vegetables – In another pan, sauté diced onions and bell peppers for 3–4 minutes until slightly softened. Add the cooked potatoes and toss until warmed through.

  • Assemble the Burritos – Lay a tortilla flat, add a portion of tofu scramble, the vegetable-potato mixture, avocado slices, and fresh cilantro. Drizzle with chipotle mayo.

  • Wrap and Serve – Fold the sides over, roll tightly, and optionally toast on a skillet for 1–2 minutes per side for a golden, crispy wrap.

  • Enjoy Hot – Slice in half and serve warm with extra sauce on the side.

Notes

  • Make Ahead: Prepare the filling in advance and store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Assemble burritos just before serving.

  • Extra Protein: Add black beans or tempeh for an added protein boost.

  • Heat Factor: Adjust spice level by adding jalapeños or hot sauce.

  • Storage: Wrap in foil and refrigerate for up to 2 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
