Ingredients
  

Beans & Rice Filling

  • 1 ½ cups dry rice I use white rice that cooks in 12-15 mins. If using brown rice, it will take longer
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 bell peppers, chopped
  • ½ a large red or white onion, finely diced
  • 1 package of low-sodium taco seasoning or use 3 tbsp of your own homemade
  • 1 19oz can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 12oz can whole kernel corn, drained
  • 1 cup salsa of choice I like chipotle
  • ¾ cup vegan shredded cheese optional

For Serving

  • 8 large flour tortillas use whole wheat or protein wraps for extra protein
  • see notes about extra toppings etc.

Instructions
 

Cooking the Burrito Filling

  • In a large dutch oven on medium heat, add olive oil, onion, and bell peppers. Cook for 3-4 mins.
  • Now, add in the water, rice, taco seasoning, salsa, corn, and black beans and stir to combine.
  • Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer for 12-15 mins (or however long your rice package instructions state).
  • Remove from heat, fluff the rice mixture with a fork, and allow it to sit covered for another 5 mins.

Burrito Assembly

  • Divide the filling evenly between 8 large tortillas. Add vegan beef and grated cheese in now if adding.
  • Roll up the burrito, wrap tightly in foil or plastic wrap, and place in the freezer for storage.
  • Pull out your frozen burritos and re-heat when you are ready to eat. Top eat bite of the burrito with toppings like guacamole and hot sauce if desired. Remember - do not put foil in the microwave. Enjoy!

Notes

These burritos are delicious as is, however, feel free to add other toppings fresh onto eat bite of the burrito once it's been reheated. Here are some examples:
  • vegan queso
  • pico de gallo
  • guacamole
  • hot sauce
Vegan Ground "Beef"
If you would like to add more protein, use 1 package of vegan Mexican ground beef and heat it according to the package instructions. Alternatively, you can make your own homemade vegan ground beef using TVP.
