Equipment

  • skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 2 flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup vegan beef crumbles (ie: Gardein, Morning Star)
  • vegan mozzarella shreds (ie: Daiya or Follow Your Heart)
  • vegan cheddar shreds
  • 1/4 cup cilantro

optional

  • fresh or canned green salsa

Instructions
 

  • Heat your skillet on medium heat until warm and spray with cooking spray or a little bit of oil. Cook one tortilla until it’s nice and warm on one side. Set off to the side. Cook the other tortilla on one side, then flip.
  • Add mozzarella & cheddar onto the tortilla. Cook for 2 minutes.
  • Sprinkle on your beef crumbles, and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Then sprinkle over cilantro.
  • Add the original heated tortilla over the toppings, heated side down, and then carefully flip both the tortillas with the toppings over. Cook for an additional minute before cutting into quarters and serving. Top it off with salsa and enjoy!

Notes

Tortillas aren't low in carbs, so if you want a healthier option, consider flipping the tortilla in half instead of using two, or check out your grocery store for lower carb tortillas.
