Vegan Bean Burritos & Avocado Lime Guacamole:

The nice thing about this recipe is that you can easily customize it. I think that jalapenos would be a very nice addition, as well as salsa or rice. You could also substitute black beans or chickpeas for the refried beans. These burritos are  definitely filling and delicious. You can definitely get your protein fix here. Your omni friends and family won't miss the meat at all, promise. Also, I would've preferred to use flour tortillas, but I only had spinach wraps at the time. Just use your favorite kind of tortillas.

Guacamole:

Ingredients:

1 avocado, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tsp. lime juice
Pinch of salt

Instructions:

Combine all of the ingredients in a food processor. Process until nice and smooth.

Burritos:

Ingredients:

1 (15.5 oz.) can refried beans
1 tomato, diced
1 small yellow onion, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
3 tsp. olive oil, divided
2 tsp. water
1/4 tsp. salt
4 flour tortillas
1/2 cup Tofutti Better Than Sour Cream (optional)
Hot sauce (to taste)

Instructions:

1. Add 2 tsp. of the olive oil, the onion, and the garlic to a medium saucepan. Heat over medium heat until soft and a little browned, about 10 minutes. Add the 2 tsp. of water if the onions get too dry while cooking.

2. Once the onions and garlic are soft, stir in the refried beans, salt, a dash of hot sauce, and remaining 1 tsp. of olive oil. Continue cooking on medium heat until heated through, about 5 minutes.

3. Once the beans are ready, assemble the burritos. Fill the middle of each tortilla with the refried beans (add whatever else you want in there: more hot sauce, salsa, peppers, etc.), and fold.

4. Heat 1 tsp. olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook one burrito at a time, on each side until browned, 3 to 5 minutes.

5. Mix the sour cream and some hot sauce together. Top the burritos with the guacamole, tomatoes, and sour cream/hot sauce mixture.
