If you’re looking for a classic plant-based burrito recipe, this is it! This easy 8-ingredient bean burrito recipe includes simple ingredients, including whole wheat tortillas, canned refried beans, frozen corn, avocados, tomatoes, cabbage, cilantro, and salsa. In fact, you might have these ingredients in your kitchen right now, just waiting to put to good use in this recipe. I always like to say that we often make plant-based eating too complicated! It can be just as easy as this Vegan Burrito with Refried Beans and Corn. This simple burrito—which relies upon budget-friendly, kid-friendly ingredients—can be prepared in about 10 minutes for a busy weeknight, weekend brunch, healthy work lunch, or kid’s lunch box. You can also make this vegan burrito recipe into a gluten-free burrito recipe by using gluten-free tortillas. Swap out the ingredients, too! You can use this basic burrito recipe as the foundation for a creative burrito using ingredients you have on hand. Try adding sliced radishes, green onions (shown here), red onions, shredded carrots, arugula, sprouts, and plant-based cheese if you have those on hand.
To Prepare Each Burrito: Place one tortilla on flat surface, spread 1/3 cup refried beans over the center, top with 1/4 cup corn, 1/4 cup cabbage, 2 cherry tomatoes (halved), 2 slices avocado, and 1 sprig cilantro. Roll burrito. Slice in half.
Serve each burrito with salsa (1 burrito + 2 tablespoons salsa per serving)
May garnish with additional toppings, as desired (i.e., green onions, cilantro, radishes, black olives, jalapeños, cashew cheese, and vegan sour cream)
