Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup melted plant-based cheese
- 6 slices smoked turkey bacon
- 1 cup fresh spinach or baby kale
- 1/2 cup diced onions
- 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
- 2 tablespoons grape juice (natural), optional
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: Cook smoked turkey bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp, then set aside. In the same pan, sauté diced onions and bell peppers until tender. Sprinkle smoked paprika and cumin over the vegetables, then splash in grape juice (natural) to enhance the flavors.
- Layer the Burrito: Warm the flour tortillas for easier rolling. On each tortilla, layer sautéed veggies, crispy turkey bacon, fresh spinach or baby kale, and a generous amount of melted plant-based cheese. Drizzle vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural) over the fillings.
- Roll and Grill: Fold the sides of the tortilla and roll tightly to form a burrito. Heat a clean skillet over medium heat and grill the burrito on each side until the tortilla is golden and crispy and the cheese inside is melted.
- Serve and Enjoy: Slice the burrito in half or serve whole. Enjoy the combination of melty cheese, smoky turkey bacon, and vibrant vegetables.
Notes
- Use warm tortillas to make rolling easier and prevent tearing.
- Choose a plant-based cheese that melts smoothly for optimal gooeyness.
- Do not overfill to ensure easy wrapping and even grilling.
- Grill over medium heat to achieve a crispy outside without burning.
- Let the burrito rest for a minute after grilling to allow the cheese to settle.
