Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and cut the russet potatoes into thin strips for fries. Toss them in a bowl with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and 0.5 teaspoon of pepper.
Spread the fries evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 30-35 minutes, turning halfway through, until crispy and golden brown.
While the fries are baking, combine the garlic powder, onion powder, ground cumin, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper in a small bowl.
Rub the spice mixture onto both sides of the flank steak to season.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned steak and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until the desired doneness is achieved.
Remove the steak from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.
In a small bowl, mash the avocado and add a pinch of salt and a squeeze of lime juice. Mix well to make an avocado spread.
Warm the flour tortillas either in the oven or on a skillet for about 1-2 minutes.
Place a layer of avocado spread in the center of each tortilla, followed by a layer of sliced steak, a handful of baked fries, and a generous scoop of pico de gallo.
Sprinkle with fresh cilantro.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it into a burrito, securing all the fillings inside.
Repeat with the remaining tortillas and ingredients.
Serve the dairy-free California burrito immediately with additional pico de gallo or hot sauce if desired.
