  • 1 package of tempeh, crumbled
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 green bell pepper, diced
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced
  • 1 can of black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup of cooked brown rice
  • 1 tablespoon of chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon of cumin
  • 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup of chopped fresh cilantro
  • Sour cream, salsa, and guacamole, for serving

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Add the crumbled tempeh and cook for 5-7 minutes, until browned and crispy.
  • Add the diced bell peppers, onion, and jalapeno pepper to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.
  • Add the black beans, cooked brown rice, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for 2-3 minutes, until heated through.
  • Place a tortilla on a baking sheet. Spoon a quarter of the tempeh and vegetable mixture onto the tortilla. Sprinkle with a quarter of the shredded cheese and a tablespoon of chopped cilantro. Roll up the tortilla and repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
  • Bake the burritos for 10-15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the tortillas are crispy.
  • Serve the burritos with sour cream, salsa, and guacamole, if desired.
