Ingredients

• 14 ounces extra-firm tofu
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon cumin powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 red bell pepper, diced
• 1 cup spinach leaves
• 1 avocado, sliced
• 4 large flour tortillas (vegan)
• 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
• 0.5 cup salsa

Directions

Step 1

Drain and press the tofu to remove excess moisture. Crumble the tofu into small pieces using your hands or a fork.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the crumbled tofu and stir in turmeric powder, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin powder, and salt. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the tofu is heated through and slightly golden.

Step 3

Transfer the tofu to a plate and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the diced red bell pepper and cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.

Step 5

Add the black beans and spinach leaves to the skillet with the bell pepper. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the spinach is wilted and heated through.

Step 6

Warm the tortillas in the microwave or on a skillet until pliable.

Step 7

To assemble the burritos, place a portion of the tofu scramble in the center of each tortilla. Add a layer of the black bean and bell pepper mixture, sliced avocado, a spoonful of salsa, and sprinkle with fresh cilantro.

Step 8

Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly from the bottom to form a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and fillings.

Step 9

Serve the breakfast burritos immediately, with extra salsa on the side if desired.
