Recipe Review - Vegetarian Burritos
January 19, 2011

"These are the best burritos I've ever made. I used tofutti sour cream and vegan daiya cheese. One of the most satisfying vegan meals I've made so far! Super delicious! I pretty much eye balled things while assembling. Added a bit more corn and mixed it with the beans. Added some olives to the mix cause they were in the fridge. Didn't both to open them up and add the tomato/lettuce (they looked to good!) Definitely a keeper! I wrapped them all individually in foil to bake - no mess in the pan and ready to go for lunches/freezing etc. THANK YOU!" - Nikoma, Member of Food.com
