Description

These Tofu Scramble Breakfast Burritos are a delicious and satisfying vegan brunch option, featuring a flavorful tofu scramble combined with soyrizo, sautéed vegetables, and creamy avocado, all wrapped in warm flour tortillas with a hint of chipotle mayo.


Ingredients

Scale

Scramble

  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil (separated)
  • 6 ounces soyrizo (crumbled)
  • 1 small yellow onion (diced)
  • 1 bell pepper (diced)
  • 1 block firm tofu (drained & pressed)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 4 tablespoons vegan mozzarella (shredded, I used Trader Joe’s)
  • 1/4 cup non-dairy milk (unsweetened)

Assembly

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • Vegan chipotle mayo
  • 4 handfuls spinach
  • 2 small avocados (sliced)


Instructions

  1. Press the tofu: Place the drained tofu on a plate and cover with another plate. Let it press while you prepare other ingredients to remove excess moisture. Drain any released liquid before cooking.
  2. Cook the soyrizo: Heat 1 tablespoon of avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the crumbled soyrizo and cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until crispy. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  3. Sauté vegetables and tofu scramble: Return the empty skillet to the stove and heat the remaining tablespoon of oil. Add diced onion and bell pepper and cook for about 2 minutes until softened. Add the pressed tofu and crumble it using a wooden spoon. Sprinkle garlic powder, turmeric, chili powder, salt, and pepper over the tofu and mix to coat evenly. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.
  4. Add cheese and milk: Stir in shredded vegan mozzarella and unsweetened non-dairy milk. Continue cooking and mixing until the cheese is melted and the milk is slightly absorbed by the tofu, creating a soft scramble texture.
  5. Heat tortillas and assemble burritos: Warm the flour tortillas. Spread vegan chipotle mayo down the center of each tortilla. Layer with a handful of spinach, a portion of tofu scramble, crispy soyrizo, and sliced avocado. Wrap the tortillas tightly and cut each burrito in half before serving.

Notes

  • These Tofu Scramble Breakfast Burritos make a perfect vegan brunch that’s both hearty and flavorful.
  • You can substitute soyrizo for any other plant-based spicy sausage if preferred.
  • Pressing the tofu well ensures a better scramble texture and prevents sogginess.
  • Customize with additional veggies or hot sauce to taste.
