Ingredients:

1/2 block tofu
230g
1 tbsp olive oil
14g
1/2 tsp salt
3g
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1.55g
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1.50g
1/4 tsp chili powder
0.65g
1/4 tsp turmeric powder
0.55g
4 tortillas
180g
1 can black beans
420g
1 cup salsa sauce
260g
1/4 cup jalapeno peppers
22g
2 cups spinach
60g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Tofu:
- Drain the tofu and press it to remove excess moisture. Crumble it into small pieces resembling scrambled eggs.

2. Cook the Tofu:
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the crumbled tofu to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Season the tofu with salt, garlic powder, ground cumin, chili powder, and turmeric powder. Stir well to evenly coat the tofu with the spices.
- Continue to cook for another 5-7 minutes, allowing the tofu to brown slightly and absorb the flavors.
3. Prepare the Black Beans:
- While the tofu is cooking, drain and rinse the black beans.
- If desired, warm the black beans in a separate small pot over low heat.
4. Warm the Tortillas:
- Heat the tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side until warm and pliable. You can also wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 20-30 seconds.
5. Assemble the Burritos:
- Lay each tortilla flat on a clean surface.
- Divide the cooked tofu evenly among the four tortillas, placing it in the center of each.
- Add a spoonful of black beans on top of the tofu.
- Spoon on some salsa sauce.
- Sprinkle a few slices of jalapeno peppers.
- Add a handful of fresh spinach on top.
6. Wrap the Burritos:
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up from the bottom to enclose the filling.
7. Serve:
- Serve the burritos immediately. You can also wrap them in foil and keep them warm in a preheated oven if needed.

Enjoy your delicious and nutritious Vegan Breakfast Burritos!

Tips:

- For extra flavor, marinate the tofu in the spices for about 30 minutes before cooking.

- Warm the tortillas slightly before filling them to make them easier to roll.

- If you prefer a spicier kick, add more jalapeno peppers or a dash of hot sauce.

- Add some avocado slices for a creamy texture and additional nutrients.

- For a bit of crunch, you can include fresh chopped bell peppers or onions.

- If you want to prepare these burritos ahead of time, wrap them in foil and store in the refrigerator. Reheat in an oven or microwave before serving.

These Vegan Breakfast Burritos are a fantastic way to enjoy a wholesome and satisfying meal. With the perfect blend of flavors and textures, they are sure to please both vegans and non-vegans alike. Feel free to add your own twists and enjoy these flavorful wraps as part of a balanced diet.
