Serves:

4

Ingredients: 

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, olive oil, or sesame oil
  • 1 (14-oz.) block firm tofu, pressed, drained, and crumbled
  • 1/2 yellow or red onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons taco seasoning, or a mixture of chili powder and cumin
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 cup canned black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes, canned or fresh
  • 4 large flour tortillas, warmed for serving
  • 2 cups cooked white rice, warmed
  • 2 cups chopped romaine lettuce
  • 1 avocado, peeled, pitted and sliced, optional
  • Chopped fresh parsley or cilantro, optional, for garnish

Method:

  1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add tofu and onion, cooking until lightly browned and heated through, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Add taco seasoning and water, mixing well to coat. Bring mixture to a simmer and cook until slightly thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add black beans and tomatoes, and cook until just heated through, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
  4. Fill each tortilla evenly with rice, tofu mixture, romaine lettuce, avocado slices and parsley, if using.
  5. Roll each burrito tightly before serving.

Tip:

Return rolled burritos to pan, seam-side-down, and toast gently over medium-low heat on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
