Instructions

1- Prepare the Vegetables:

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
On a sheet pan lined with parchment paper, evenly spread out the diced potatoes, bell peppers, yellow onion, and tomatoes.

2- Season and Roast:

Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil.
Sprinkle them with cumin, paprika, and salt. Toss to coat evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.

3- Cook the Beans:

While the vegetables are roasting, heat a skillet (possibly a Caraway Home non-stick pan) over medium heat.
Add a small amount of olive oil and sauté the minced garlic and chipotle peppers for about 1 minute.
Add the drained black beans and sprinkle with nutritional yeast, cumin, paprika, and salt. Mix thoroughly.

4- Mash the Beans:

Using a potato masher, mash the bean mixture to a chunky consistency.

5- Blend the Cashew Chipotle Sauce:

In a Beast Blender, blend cashews, chipotle peppers, and lime juice until smooth and creamy.
Add water as needed for consistency.

6- Assemble the Burritos:

Lay a tortilla flat and spread a layer of cashew chipotle sauce over it.
Add a portion of roasted vegetables and a scoop of mashed black beans.
Sprinkle with fresh cilantro.

7- Roll and Sear:

Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll tightly from the bottom up to create a sealed burrito.
If desired, briefly sear the rolled burritos in a non-stick pan until the exterior is lightly browned.

8- Wrap and Freeze:
