In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and diced onion. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent.
Add plant-based ground beef to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart, until nicely browned.
Stir in taco seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well and cook for an additional minute to combine the flavors.
Warm refried beans in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally until heated through.
Lay out each tortilla on a clean surface. Spoon 1/4 cup of refried beans in a line along the center.
Add 1/4 cup of cooked rice on top of the beans. Spread 1/4 cup of cashew cheese over the rice.
Spoon a portion of the seasoned plant-based beef over the cashew cheese.
Top with 1/4 cup of guacamole, a small amount of shredded lettuce, and a couple of tablespoons of diced tomato.
Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll up tightly from bottom to top to form a burrito.
Repeat the assembling steps with remaining tortillas and fillings.
Serve immediately and enjoy your vegan burritos warm.
