Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Large flour tortillas
- 1 pound Plant-based ground beef (e.g., Beyond Meat or similar)
- 1 cup Black beans, cooked and drained
- 1 cup Cotija cheese, crumbled
- 1 large Avocado, sliced
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium Onion, diced
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 0.5 cup Sour cream (optional)
- 0.5 cup Salsa (optional)
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the diced onion, red bell pepper, and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the onion is translucent.
Add the plant-based ground beef to the skillet. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, breaking up the meat, until it's browned and heated through.
Stir in the chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the ground beef evenly.
Add the black beans to the skillet. Stir to combine and heat for an additional 2 minutes.
Warm the flour tortillas in a separate pan or microwave them for about 20 seconds until soft.
To assemble each burrito, place a tortilla on a flat surface. Spoon an even amount of the ground beef and bean mixture onto the center of the tortilla.
Top with crumbled Cotija cheese, sliced avocado, and sprinkle with fresh cilantro.
Add a dollop of sour cream and salsa if desired.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly to form a burrito.
Serve the burritos warm, and enjoy!
