Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a medium saucepan, combine quinoa and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until all liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and let it cool slightly.
-
While the quinoa is cooking, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Crumble the pressed tofu into the skillet and sprinkle with smoked paprika, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tofu is golden brown and slightly crispy.
-
Add the diced bell peppers, onion, and corn to the skillet with the tofu. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
-
Stir in the cooked quinoa, black beans, cilantro, and lime juice. Cook for 2-3 minutes to heat everything through and allow the flavors to meld.
-
Place a tortilla on a flat surface and spoon a generous portion of the quinoa, veggies, and tofu mixture in the center. Top with avocado slices, salsa, and vegan sour cream, if desired.
-
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up tightly to form a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
-
Serve the Quinoa Veggies and Tofu Burritos immediately, or wrap them in foil and bake at 350°F for 10-15 minutes for a warm and toasty treat.
