Vegan Freezer Burritos
Do you ever have those days (or weeks) when you feel like you’re firing on all cylinders at work and in your personal life? When you’re super busy and it makes you insatiably hungry? That’s where these easy, pop-em-in-the-oven, vegan freezer burritos come in clutch.
I made a double batch of my chickpea and red cabbage scramble last week, and wrapped half in soft spinach tortillas (you could use any tortilla flavor your like) with some leftover brown rice and a sprinkling of sliced green onions and vegan shredded cheese. The cheese is optional and we rarely buy it because nutritional yeast usually gets the job done in a more healthful way, but there’s something about biting into a burrito with warm, melty cheese…occasionally you just have to do it.
Dipped in your favorite spicy salsa, this is one comforting, filling, and EASY meal for those hangry but short-on-time types of moments when you could very easily go to town on an entire bag of sweet potato chips and a vat of guacamole (we’ve all been there…right?!). A vegan freezer burrito is a better idea, trust me.

Instructions
- Divide the rice mixture between each of the tortillas. Top the rice with the chickpea scramble, vegan cheese (if using), and a few sliced green onions. Wrap the burritos.
- Wrap each burrito in plastic wrap, followed by a second layer of foil. Freeze the burritos in a large freezer bag.
- To re-heat the burritos, carefully remove the foil and plastic wrap, then re-wrap them in the foil. Heat them at 400º F for about 40-45 minutes, or until heated through. Serve with salsa.
