Prepare the cashew crema: Drain the soaked cashews and add them to a blender along with fresh lime juice, minced garlic, water, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Once hot, add the diced zucchini, red bell pepper, and red onion. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Add the cauliflower rice to the skillet along with ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until warmed through.
Warm the cassava flour tortillas in a dry skillet or in the microwave for a few seconds until pliable.
Assemble the burritos: Spread a layer of mashed sweet potato on each tortilla. Top with the sautéed vegetable mixture, a handful of mixed salad greens, and a drizzle of cashew crema.
Optional: Sprinkle with fresh cilantro for added flavor.
Wrap the tortillas tightly around the filling to form burritos. Serve immediately and enjoy!
