3 HIGH PROTEIN VEGAN BURRITOS | EASY RECIPES 🌱🌯🔥

[@haileystinchcomb5593]

This is the first time I’ve ever commented on a KZbin video… ever… but I felt like I needed to say this! I make a point to not watch your new uploads right away, I save them until I’m having a bad day because they literally never fail to make me smile. This morning I was feeling kinda iffy and as soon as you said “what’s up everyone” I was grinning ear to ear. Thank you for all you do, both for the vegan community and for people in general 💕

[@Simnettnutrition]

Thanks for the comment. Glad I made ya smile!

[@lisasmith8170]

so happy that u r showing ppl that there r sooooo many good food to eat as a vegan . thank u again for the recipes.

[@karobachner]

Soy curls are the best! Before I met my boyfriend he would only eat meat and potatoes! (I'm not kidding) ...Two years into the relationship and he's replaced 70% of his meat intake with vegan substitutes and soy curls (marinated/seasoned and baked in the oven) are one of his favourites! Also all three of those burritos look delicious! :)

[@xxxxxxx82736]

Is there any difference between TVP and soy curls? I mean when it comes to marinating and cooking - just the whole process. Here in germany i can only find classic tvp. And can u give me some recommendations for the marinating/seasoning?

[@dalemills8052]

@@xxxxxxx82736 soy curls can just be soaked in cold/warm/ hot water or marinated in any flavor profile you like. I like to add just a bit of vinegar or lemon juice to a strong broth. Mustard and/or vegan Worcestershire are great instead of vinegar. Just soak the soy curls in a generous amount of the marinade for as long as you like, squeeze out the excess liquid and sautee or bake them. I even bread and chicken fry them. Wonderful!! With tvp I would make the same marinade and use just enough to make the tvp as soft as you like it While sauteeing it.

[@vegantattoo7292]

I've got one for you....sweet potatoes, salsa, black beans, fresh corn, avocado, and cilantro. It's good with or without rice. I live on burritos as much as possible and yeah, soy curls ROCK. Normally I toast my tortillas on an open flame briefly on one side before I fill 'em. It keeps the moisture inside while adding that texture and yumminess. I will try your sealing-the-ends technique first thing tomorrow. I find it amusing that someone in New Mexico is watching someone in Canada make burritos. Hah! Thanks for the video! Good stuff!

[@elizabethdean0187]

You make vegan cooking a pure delight and inspiration. Than’ you.

[@carriejones4772]

Tried it today - gardein chicken, black beans, daiya, tomato, onion, avocado & cilantro - gotta work on my rolling, but otherwise it was AWESOME!!!! Thank you for showing us this!!!!!

[@tawnyamahaffey2377]

I was going to say that gardein chicken or the Morningstar chorizo would give it that chewy texture!

[@cindystrother7710]

Love when you put your RECIPES and directions underneath so we can have them for us beginners

[@jayb8056]

Hey Derek. Here's a little tip I use for sealing burritos. Just before you finish the roll, dip your finger in some water and lightly wet the inner side of the closing edge of the tortilla. The water will allow the gluten to act as a glue that seals the burrito more securely especially when it hits the pan.

[@adamj2683]

And then the gluten will lead to zonulin which leads to leaky gut, inflammation, disease, and a shitty life.

[@josephfuhr]

Another trick-- instead of microwaving the tortilla, you can just put it straight on the heat source and move it around a bit for 10 seconds, on the flame or electric stove. Right over a flame is how they soften tortillas in Latin America.

[@RaynaManger]

I found the soy curls and I made them today. They are a game-changer!! Thanks for introducing them! I seasoned them with smoky paprika, liquid smoke, liquid aminos, and nutritional yeast. The result is the best vegan bacon I've ever eaten! I can't wait to make a vegan BLT!

[@jodieroberts7882]

I used the tofu, some cooked peppers, onion, and garlic, and I browned some left over mashed potatoes that I had. Put them in the burrito. I rolled it up like suggested - awesome tip. Gave it to carnivore husband who loved it! “It tastes like it had egg in it!.” He loved it. Thank you for the tofu marinade recipe!

[@jesweyers3500]

[@HarryPotter-gb4to]

Roasted potatoes go perfectly with the pepper, onion, and beans. I make it a couple of times a week! Usually just roast all the veggies together on the oven at 425 for 15-20 minutes while the rice is cooking!

[@Simnettnutrition]

Great idea!

[@tksoupmixkinsey8698]

For crunch in the bean burrito, try sliced radish! Goes really good with Mexican inspired foods. And diced sweet onions. Not cooked.

[@mjking9019]

We love flavoring our rice while it cooks. The top fav in my household is curried rice. Just stir in some curry powder to taste but I think you could also mix in some of your favorite curry paste with the water and cook the rice in that as well. As for the bean burritos why not fajita or taco flavored soy curls, tofu or tempeh to add in?

I made this one yesterday and it was delicious. Thanks for sharing your recipes! I'll be trying the other ones as well. I've written them up and will share in subsequent comments. Sorry that I didn't add the amounts, but this should be a good starting point. Crispy BBQ Garden Wrap Ingredients: Butler Soy Curls or TVP BBQ sauce of choice Black Pepper romaine lettuce bell pepper (red or yellow) carrots, shredded green onion, chopped tortilla, wrap size (spinach) mustard vegan ranch dressing cooked brown rice Directions: Rehydrate soy curls in water for about 10 mins, drain excess water and wring out the rest. Put in a dish, add BBQ sauce. Squish the sauce into the soy curls. Add black pepper. Sauté, bake or air fry (preferred) the soy curls. Set aside. Chop the romaine lettuce. Slice the bell peppers, green onion and grate the carrots. Add soy curls to the wrap-sized tortilla. Add mustard or sauce of choice. I used TJ's Dill dressing and a homemade plant-based honey mustard dressing (homemade). Add the veggies (lettuce, bell pepper, carrots and green onion) Add brown rice. Add a vegan ranch dressing and fold the tortilla into a wrap. Sauté/toast the wrap in a skillet.

I love making burritos. I’ll sometimes make some and then freeze them, then throw them in the air fryer on a low setting when I’d like them. For this (or anyone who likes a lot of moisture in their burritos) I suggest using greens to line the burrito to separate the liquids from the tortilla, keeping it from getting soggy.
