While the tofu cooks, lay a sheet of parchment paper on a baking sheet, add all of the machaca ingredients and thoroughly combine. Allow this to cook for about 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Next, add all the seasonings and thoroughly mix to completely coat the tofu. For a crispier burrito, heat the burrito in a small pan with a little bit of oil over medium heat and heat through on each side for 2-3 minutes.įor the scramble, add olive oil to a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat and use your hands to crumble the block of tofu into the pan. To reheat, place 1-2 burritos on a microwave-safe dish and heat for 60-90 seconds. If you'd like to make these ahead and save for later, you can store leftover burritos in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4-5 days. Machaca is a traditionally Northern Mexican dried meat that is rehydrated when cooking, and this is our plant-based take! A combination of molasses, soy sauce, liquid smoke, and Loisa’s Organic Sazón, Ground Cumin, and Garlic powder add smokiness and complexity similar to what you’d find in a traditional machaca preparation. The jackfruit machaca adds even more flavor and a welcome crispiness to complete the package. If you want less heat, devein and deseed the jalapeños before you chop them – that’s where most of the spice is. The tofu scramble gets its color from a flavorful blend of nutritional yeast, Loisa’s Organic Adobo and Organic Turmeric, and a little kick from diced jalapeños.

This Latin fusion recipe comes together in just about 30 minutes making it the perfect easy plant-based breakfast or a great option to meal prep for the week – just make the fillings, wrap your burritos, and store in the fridge to reheat when you’re ready to eat.
