This stick-to-your-ribs Hearty Breakfast Burrito is satisfying and full of flavor but won't leave you feeling sluggish. Made with black beans, potatoes, and veggies, this hot breakfast option is oil-free, soy-free, and nut-free. These burritos are also freezer-friendly, making it a great meal prep option for a fast, tasty, on-the-go breakfast option.
We love Ezekiel Food for Life brand sprouted grain tortilla, found in the freezer section of most grocery stores. There are several sauce options that work well with this dish: Guacamole, Cashew Cream, Avocado Cilantro Lime, Salsa, or Sersie's Favorite Cheese Sauce. Or you can keep it simple and just add sliced avocado and fresh lime juice or just some hot pepper sauce.
Hearty Breakfast Burrito has 12 ingredients:
- Sprouted grain tortillas
- Onion
- Potato, Yukon gold or red
- Red bell pepper (orange, yellow or green work well too)
- Garlic
- Black beans
- Coconut aminos
- Ground cumin
- Chili powder
- Lime
- Spinach (or arugula)
- Fresh cilantro
The optional sauces for this delicious burrito include Guacamole, Cashew Cream, Avocado Cilantro Lime, Salsa, or Sersie's Favorite Cheese Sauce.
How to prepare Hearty Vegan Breakfast Burrito
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread diced potatoes over a shallow parchment- or silicone mat-lined baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes. Potatoes should be cooked through and tender (not overly crispy).
- While potatoes are baking, preheat a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook for 3 to 4 minutes.
- Add chopped bell pepper and garlic, and continue to cook for another 3 minutes.
- Stir in ground cumin and ground chili powder—Cook for another minute or two.
- Add one can of drained and rinsed black beans and coconut aminos. Stir well to incorporate and continue cooking for another 3 minutes.
- Add fresh baby spinach and chopped cilantro. Stir, put the lid, then turn off the heat to allow spinach to wilt.
- Take the baked diced potatoes and fold them into the bean and veggie mixture. Add fresh lime juice and give it a stir. If you like it spicy, add in the optional pinch of cayenne or to taste.
- To prepare the tortillas, put them on a plate and cover them with a clean, damp paper towel. Put them in the microwave for 30 to 45 seconds to warm. This softens the tortillas making them easier to fold without breaking apart.
- Finally, add about a cup of the mixture to the center of the burrito. If using a sauce, you can either add it to the burrito before folding or use it more for dipping. Carefully fold the tortilla over twice. If you're taking this breakfast burrito to-go or freezing it for later as part of your meal prep, take parchment paper and carefully wrap each burrito.
Store leftover burritos wrapped and stored in the refrigerator for two days or in the freezer for four months.
Enjoy this delicious breakfast burrito with a simple green salad, and a refreshing sparkling orange juice: ½ orange juice and ½ sparkling water plus ice. This meal also goes beautifully with a Honeydew Blackberry Mango Smoothie or Superfood Smoothie, especially after a workout.

Like the tofu egg scramble this is a satisfying breakfast. Make an large batch of the filling and create wraps each morning.

Absolutely the best eaten with or without tortilla.

So glad you enjoyed it! Yes, I've eaten the filling over a bed of mixed salad greens for breakfast. Also yummy in a tofu scramble.
