Notes

*In order to make gluten-free, use gluten-free tortillas.
No Chickpeas? Use white beans or firm tofu.
Want it Spicy? Add red pepper flakes, sliced jalapeño or hot sauce.
Store leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Optional: Heat up the burrito on the stove to crisp the outside to a golden color. This can help it hold together better if packing for later.
