Recipe: Vegan Chorizo Burrito

As promised, here is a simple recipe I threw together using my absolute favorite vegan product: Field Meat Grains Sausages, Mexican Chorizo.

Ingredients (for 2 servings):

• Olive Oil, 2 tsp
• Frozen Peas, 1 cup
• Frozen Yellow Corn, 1/2 cup
• Onions, 1/2, diced (not pictured because I didn't have any onion the night I made this)
• Shallots, 2, sliced
• Red Pepper, 1/2 diced
• Green Pepper, 1/2 diced
• Garlic Cloves, 2
• Spinach, a big bunch
• Field Grains Vegan Chorizo, 1 link
• Tortillas, 2
• Cilantro, handful, chopped
• Vegan Sour Cream, 2 tbsp
  
• Salt
  

While the cast iron skillet was getting hot, I chopped most of my vegetables and measured the frozen ones-

I added the olive oil to the skillet, then added the frozen vegetables, which I ran under warm water first so I wouldn't get all the extra water from the defrosted ice. (Note: I really don't think it matters what order you add the ingredients. My general rule is that I add them in the order of what takes longest to cook to what takes the least long to cook.)

After about 2 minutes, I added the peppers and shallots-

I chopped one link of soyrizo-

And added the soyrizo to the mixture, continuing to stir-

After another few minutes I added the spinach and garlic-

After the spinach wilted (and since I didn't have tomatoes or onions), I added the can of salsa-

I chopped the cilantro to top the burrito after I assemble it, and noticed the Professor was watching me again-

As it continued to cook, I put the tortilla on top so it would get soft from the warm steam (Note: this is not the same tortilla pictured above. Those were moldy so I ended up using these larger whole wheat ones)-

When it looked about done, I divided the mixture in half-

I had my burrito toppings ready-

I placed the mixture into the burrito, along with the vegan sour cream, cilantro, Tabasco and salt-

I'm not very good at wrapping burritos, so I have no photo of that. But you get the idea.

As shown here, this is 6.5 points (2.5 for the half a sausage link, 1 for the olive oil, 2 for the tortilla, 1 for the sour cream). Of course depending on the tortilla you use or the toppings you select, your points can vary.

Enjoy!
