Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup Soy Chorizo
  • 1 1/2 cups Pinto Beans
  • 1 cup Quinoa
  • 1/3 cup Black Olives
  • 1/3 cup Avocado, diced
  • 1/2 cup Vegan Shredded Cheese
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Cilantro, chopped
  • 2 Flour Tortillas

Spices & Seasonings

  • 1 tablespoon Taco Seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Oregano
  • Salt, to taste
  • Ground Black Pepper, to taste

Others

  • Oil, as needed for cooking
  • Hot Sauce, to taste (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat and cook the base mixture: Heat oil as needed in a medium pan over medium heat. Add the pinto beans, quinoa, black olives, taco seasoning, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir occasionally and cook for 3-5 minutes until heated through and all ingredients are well combined.
  2. Combine with remaining ingredients: Transfer the warm mixture to a large bowl. Add the soy chorizo, diced avocado, vegan shredded cheese, and fresh cilantro. Mix everything thoroughly to ensure even distribution of all ingredients.
  3. Assemble the burritos: Divide the mixture evenly onto the center of each flour tortilla. Fold the tortillas into burritos by folding in the sides and rolling tightly. Alternatively, serve as breakfast bowls without tortillas. Drizzle with hot sauce to taste if desired.

Notes

  • Use firm tofu or tempeh as an alternative to soy chorizo if preferred.
  • For a gluten-free option, substitute flour tortillas with corn tortillas or gluten-free wraps.
  • Adjust the amount of hot sauce according to your heat preference.
  • This filling can also be served over a bed of greens or rice as a bowl meal.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in a pan or microwave.
