Ingredients

• 4 pieces large flour tortillas (vegan)
• 2 cups cooked brown rice
• 1 cup cooked black beans
• 1 cup vegan ground beef
• 1 cup salsa
• 1 cup guacamole
• 1 cup vegan sour cream
• 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 0.5 cup chopped cilantro
• 1 piece lime
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and vegan ground beef. Cook for 5 minutes, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and heated through.

Step 2

Season the vegan ground beef with cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to incorporate the spices evenly and set aside.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked brown rice, nutritional yeast, and a pinch of salt. Mix well and set aside.

Step 4

Heat the black beans in a small pot or microwave until they are warmed through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 5

In another bowl, mix the chopped cilantro and juice of the lime with the salsa to create a cilantro-lime salsa.

Step 6

Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. In the center, add 1/4 cup of the seasoned brown rice, followed by 1/4 cup of cooked black beans, and 1/4 cup of the cooked vegan ground beef.

Step 7

Top with 1/4 cup of guacamole, and 1/4 cup of vegan sour cream, followed by a generous spoonful of cilantro-lime salsa.

Step 8

Fold the sides of the tortilla up and over the filling, then roll it up tightly from bottom to top to create a burrito.

Step 9

Repeat layers and rolling process with the remaining tortillas and ingredients.

Step 10

Serve the burritos immediately, optionally heating them on a pan for a minute on each side to seal and crisp up the tortillas.
