Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 links vegan sausage
- 14 ounces extra-firm tofu
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 cup spinach, chopped
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 0.5 cup salsa
Instructions
Crumble the extra-firm tofu into a bowl to create a 'scrambled' texture.
Add nutritional yeast, turmeric powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the crumbled tofu. Mix well to evenly coat the tofu. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced red bell pepper and sauté until it begins to soften, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the seasoned tofu to the skillet with the red bell pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tofu is heated through and slightly golden.
In a separate pan, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Slice the vegan sausage links and add them to the pan. Cook for 5-6 minutes until browned on all sides.
Add the chopped spinach to the tofu scramble and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes.
To assemble the burritos, warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave them for a few seconds until pliable.
Place an even portion of tofu scramble, sliced vegan sausage, and sliced avocado in the center of each tortilla. Add a spoonful of salsa on top.
Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling and roll it up tightly to form a burrito.
Serve immediately, or wrap the burritos in foil for an on-the-go breakfast.
