Vegan Cowboy Caviar Burrito
Cowboy caviar is having a moment on the internet. I knew I wanted to make a riff on it, so I decided to add it to a burrito. This Vegan Cowboy Caviar Burrito is delicious and a great way to make cowboy caviar into an actual meal.
This burrito is packed full of veggies and has protein from the beans. Avocado adds some healthy fats to this recipe and makes it extremely satiating.
Let's get into the recipe.

How do I store the leftovers?
You can store the leftover filling in the fridge for up to 3 days in the fridge and make the extra burritos as you go. Or, you can prep all the burritos at once and store them in the fridge for up to 2 days or in the freezer for up to a month. I recommend making the burritos as you are eating them as this prevents the wrap from getting soggy.

This is such an easy dinner and very yummy too! My two boys (11 and 8) give it two thumbs up. I made the filling the night before so we could make dinner real quick after sports. We used the carb balance tortillas from Mission (smaller than burrito size) and this made about ten for us. It's bright and refreshing and we all liked the crunch of the tortillas. Thanks for a great recipe; it'll go into our rotation!
