Ingredients

• 8 oz tempeh
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 2 tbsp soy sauce or tamari (for gluten-free)
• 1 tbsp maple syrup
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 4 large flour tortillas
• 2 cups cooked brown rice
• 2 tbsp lime juice
• 1 avocado, sliced
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 2 cups romaine lettuce, shredded
• 0.5 red onion, thinly sliced
• 0.5 cup vegan ranch dressing
• 1 tbsp olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Slice the tempeh into thin strips.

Step 2

In a bowl, mix together smoked paprika, soy sauce, maple syrup, and garlic powder. Add the tempeh strips and marinate for at least 10 minutes.

Step 3

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated tempeh strips and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until crispy and golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine cooked brown rice and lime juice. Stir well to incorporate the lime flavor into the rice.

Step 5

For each burrito, lay a flour tortilla flat and spread about 2 tablespoons of vegan ranch dressing in the center.

Step 6

Layer the following ingredients on top of the dressing: a quarter of the lime-infused rice, a few slices of the avocado, a handful of cherry tomatoes, a quarter of the shredded romaine lettuce, a few slices of red onion, and a portion of the cooked tempeh bacon.

Step 7

Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling and then roll it up tightly from the bottom.

Step 8

Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and ingredients.

Step 9

Serve the burritos immediately, or wrap them in foil for a meal on the go.
