Let’s take MEGA to the burrito!
It’s my affectionate nickname, “Super Burrito,” and honestly, it’s the only thing I can eat in the world right now.
Before this baby was born, we got to the last minute, and this – or a variation of this – was actually what I’d been eating. Does that mean she’ll love spicy cauliflower, walnut enchiladas, baked sweet potatoes, vegan cheese, avocado, flour tacos, and salsa? A mother can only hope.
Should I hide the cauliflower walnut enchiladas in the fridge for later this fall? But how? They burned a hole in my fridge. I eat them at every meal. It’s easy: just grab a cup here and there, put it in the skillet, and then five minutes later, feed your face vegan nachos, tortillas, quesadillas, and giant burritos (literally all of these have been done).
Today, let’s focus on giant burritos, but this concept applies to all of our favorite Tex-Mex food groups.
Here’s what’s in my super burrito:
- Cauliflower and walnut tacos
- Roasted Sweet Potato
- Vegan cheese, or sometimes real cheese — depending on the mood
- Delicious salsa (now love Mateo salsa at Costco)
- Mashed avocado
- coriander
- Lime extrusion
- Extra dip
I will tell you a secret: sometimes, I just throw in some veggies, like frozen cauliflower and walnut tacos. (Carrots? A hot pepper? Spinach? And sometimes a few eggs.) It depends on what I have or how I’m feeling.
My second secret is that even if we cram all of this into a tortilla that already contains carbohydrates, I won’t be offended if there are extra carbs, like white or brown rice.
Look at this and tell me you do not want to eat it.
I dare you.
Now roll, cut, and admire…
And then drizzle extra vegan queso over the whole thing because you obviously aren’t messing around here. This is a MEGA BURRITO, for crying out loud.
I raise my Mega-Burrito to you, friends!
Remember: this combo is also great reformatted as nachos, tacos, and quesadillas.
Just you keep that in mind.
Instructions
- For the filling, place the sweet potatoes in a frying pan with some oil and salt. Saute until tender like a fork. Add the prepared cauliflower walnut enchilada meat and enough water to make it look nice, as well as sauce and enchilada meat.
- Mix: Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.
- Assemble: Fill tortillas with mashed avocado, cauliflower walnuts, salsa, coriander, and cheese. Roll, wrap, fry—whatever you want to think. Giant burritos say you, do you!
