Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- In a large pan on medium-high heat, drizzle some olive oil and add in your frozen veggies and let cook until thawed out slightly, about 5-10 minutes.
- Add in all your other vegetables, spices, and salsa and let cook for about 15-20 minutes, until all veggies are soft and can be pierced with a fork. Add in some water as needed if vegetables start to stick to the pan.
- Add your package of veggie ground meat and break up the veggie meat with your spatula. Let cook for another 10 minutes. Add in your beans last and let cook for another 5 minutes.
- Set your veggie/meat mixture aside and prepare your tortillas. Place one tortilla on a plate/board, then scoop about 2-3 tbsp of the veggie mixture into your tortilla. Don't overstuff so that you can still roll it up into a burrito. Once rolled, place on a dish. Repeat for remaining tortillas.
- Take a pan and drizzle with some olive oil and set to medium-high heat. Place your burritos folded side down on the pan and cook for about 3-5 minutes or until golden and flip burrito over so the other side can become golden and crispy. Transfer burrito to a plate and repeat for other burritos.
- Before enjoying, you can top these burritos with some extra salsa or sauce of choice. You can even top it with some avocado! Enjoy!
