10 big tortilla wraps

Some fresh cilantro, roughly chopped (optional)
# Instructions:
01 -
Fire up your oven to 400°F (205°C). Spread out the cubed potatoes, chopped tomato, onion, and bell peppers on a baking tray. Dust them with the paprika, cumin, and some salt and pepper. Use your hands to mix everything together, making sure each piece is evenly coated. Spread it all out. Roast for about 45 minutes until the potato edges are crispy and golden.
02 -
While the roasting happens, grab a frying pan. Add a drizzle of oil and heat it over medium. Toss in the chopped garlic, chipotle pepper, cumin, paprika, nutritional yeast, and a bit of salt. Cook for about a minute until it smells fantastic. Then pour in rinsed beans and veggie broth. Stir everything together and smash the beans slightly with a potato masher. You want a thick texture but keep some beans whole for a bit of bite.
03 -
Throw the soaked cashews into a blender, adding dairy-free milk, salt, lime juice, maple syrup, the chipotle peppers, and their adobo sauce too. Blend it all until it’s silky smooth. Give it a taste test—feel free to add more spice or lime if needed.

Spread a tortilla flat, then begin the layering fun. Start with a couple of scoops of roasted veggies, then slather on a good spoonful of the bean filling. Follow it up with a drizzle of chipotle cream sauce and finish with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro if you like it. Wrap it up tightly, tucking in the sides to keep it all together.
05 -
If you have leftovers, burritos can chill in the fridge for 4 days. Want to keep them longer? Wrap each one in foil, store in a freezer-safe bag, and freeze for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to eat, reheat in an air fryer for that crispy crunch, or go with a microwave or stovetop if you’re in a rush.
