Ingredients
Veggies
- 2 bell pepper any color

- 8 oz button mushrooms brown or white, 225 g, sliced
- 2 Tbsp olive oil 30 mL
- 1 Tbsp ranch seasoning mix
- ½ tsp salt

The Rest
- 1 oz package vegan chorizo can use any brand, a package of soyrizo also works, 285 g, crumbled
- 1 cup cheddar cheese 120 g, shredded
- 10 large tortilla wraps Ole Extreme Wellness low-carb tortillas are my favorite for this recipe
Instructions
- Veggies: Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Dice 2 bell peppers, 1 medium yellow onion, and 3 medium potatoes into bite-sized pieces (no need to peel the potato).Transfer diced veggies and 8 oz sliced button mushrooms to a large (10 x 15 x 1-inch) nonstick rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 Tbsp olive oil, sprinkle with 1 Tbsp Ranch seasoning mix, and ½ tsp salt. Toss everything to coat.Spread into a single layer and cook for 30 minutes, or until potatoes are tender. Leave oven on.
- Eggs: In a blender, blitz together 4 large eggs, 2 cups egg whites, 1 cup cottage cheese, and 1 Tbsp cornstarch until smooth (about 20 seconds).
- Pour: Pour egg mixture evenly over the cooked veggies. Top with 1 10-oz package vegan chorizo crumbles and 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
- Bake: Carefully transfer tray to the oven and cook for about 10 minutes, or until egg is firm across the whole pan.Once cooled, cut into 10 rectangular pieces.
- Assemble: Wrap an egg patty into each tortilla. Wrap each burrito in either parchment paper, foil, or plastic wrap, then store them all in a large freezer-safe container or baggie for up to 3 months.
- Serve: When ready to eat, wrap your frozen burrito in a damp paper towel. Microwave for 2 minutes, or until middle is no longer cold.For best results, pop it in the air fryer for 2 to 3 minutes after microwaving to crisp up the outside. Enjoy!
- Sauce (Optional): These burritos should be served with a sauce for dipping, whether it be salsa, sour cream, or your favorite! See notes for a high-protein sauce I like serving with these.
