Soy curls are the best! Before I met my boyfriend he would only eat meat and potatoes! (I'm not kidding) ...Two years into the relationship and he's replaced 70% of his meat intake with vegan substitutes and soy curls (marinated/seasoned and baked in the oven) are one of his favourites! Also all three of those burritos look delicious! :)

Is there any difference between TVP and soy curls? I mean when it comes to marinating and cooking - just the whole process. Here in germany i can only find classic tvp. And can u give me some recommendations for the marinating/seasoning?

@dalemills8052

@@xxxxxxx82736 soy curls can just be soaked in cold/warm/ hot water or marinated in any flavor profile you like. I like to add just a bit of vinegar or lemon juice to a strong broth. Mustard and/or vegan Worcestershire are great instead of vinegar. Just soak the soy curls in a generous amount of the marinade for as long as you like, squeeze out the excess liquid and sautee or bake them. I even bread and chicken fry them. Wonderful!! With tvp I would make the same marinade and use just enough to make the tvp as soft as you like it While sauteeing it.

Loved this video! Derek, you missed the ultimate closing line though, “that’s a wrap!” 😂

I've got one for you....sweet potatoes, salsa, black beans, fresh corn, avocado, and cilantro. It's good with or without rice. I live on burritos as much as possible and yeah, soy curls ROCK. Normally I toast my tortillas on an open flame briefly on one side before I fill 'em. It keeps the moisture inside while adding that texture and yumminess. I will try your sealing-the-ends technique first thing tomorrow. I find it amusing that someone in New Mexico is watching someone in Canada make burritos. Hah! Thanks for the video! Good stuff!

Tried it today - gardein chicken, black beans, daiya, tomato, onion, avocado & cilantro - gotta work on my rolling, but otherwise it was AWESOME!!!! Thank you for showing us this!!!!!

Hey Derek. Here's a little tip I use for sealing burritos. Just before you finish the roll, dip your finger in some water and lightly wet the inner side of the closing edge of the tortilla. The water will allow the gluten to act as a glue that seals the burrito more securely especially when it hits the pan.

@adamj2683

And then the gluten will lead to zonulin which leads to leaky gut, inflammation, disease, and a shitty life.

Another trick-- instead of microwaving the tortilla, you can just put it straight on the heat source and move it around a bit for 10 seconds, on the flame or electric stove. Right over a flame is how they soften tortillas in Latin America.

For crunch in the bean burrito, try sliced radish! Goes really good with Mexican inspired foods. And diced sweet onions. Not cooked.

I used the tofu, some cooked peppers, onion, and garlic, and I browned some left over mashed potatoes that I had. Put them in the burrito. I rolled it up like suggested - awesome tip. Gave it to carnivore husband who loved it! “It tastes like it had egg in it!.” He loved it. Thank you for the tofu marinade recipe!

I found the soy curls and I made them today. They are a game-changer!! Thanks for introducing them! I seasoned them with smoky paprika, liquid smoke, liquid aminos, and nutritional yeast. The result is the best vegan bacon I've ever eaten! I can't wait to make a vegan BLT!

We love flavoring our rice while it cooks. The top fav in my household is curried rice. Just stir in some curry powder to taste but I think you could also mix in some of your favorite curry paste with the water and cook the rice in that as well. As for the bean burritos why not fajita or taco flavored soy curls, tofu or tempeh to add in?

They look awesome. Thanks for the ideas. Thought I would pass on a tip. I have been putting my garlic powder and onion powder half and half in a shaker bottle. Then you have it alrwady mixed. 💞

My favorite thing about your cooking is that you're not delusional like "oh yeah eggs and cheese and meat are gross, plain tofu and grass is delicious". You actually come up with delicious tasting vegan alternatives so you don't have to miss out on enjoying your meals. Well done!

Pico de Gallo on your bean burrito instead of the cooked veggies is my favorite way.

I make home made salsa weekly, so I would definitely add that. Love your ideas.

Been trying to figure out how to fold a burrito for way too long. You made it simple. THANK YOU!

I'm so freaking hungry right now. Everything looks so freaking YUMMY!

Some kind of dense mushroom would be good for the last one. Shiitake or king oyster etc 💪

These all look so good and thanks for the tips on wrapping them, it’s always a challenge😂 also never thought of pan frying either so keen to try.

For the dinner burrito, I like to add chickpeas roasted in taco seasoning and I like mixing lentils into the rice. I also love the flavour of mixing black beans with bbq sauce. Thanks for the great tips!

here's what I'd improve about the dinner one to give it some bite: French fries inside I got them inside a veggie burrito at a local burrito place once and I haven't ordered a burrito without them since. It goes a long way, especially at a burrito place where the option's usually a bit mushy

Thank you so much for these great ideas. I'm still on the hunt for a good gluten free wrap. Haven't had much success so far. Everything rips apart of the ones I have tried. These multiple recipes take a lot of work to make and film and I really appreciate all the tips. Hugs from Toronto.

I love making burritos. I’ll sometimes make some and then freeze them, then throw them in the air fryer on a low setting when I’d like them. For this (or anyone who likes a lot of moisture in their burritos) I suggest using greens to line the burrito to separate the liquids from the tortilla, keeping it from getting soggy.

Try adding large pieces of medjool dates for the dinner burrito for some chewy texture. The sweetness is delicious with the rest of the ingredients :)
