Sofritas Burrito Bowl

To keep it simple, we're starting with a base of cilantro lime rice topped with spicy tofu sofritas, bell pepper, onion, black beans, and of course, guacamole!

This recipe is extremely flexible! Don't have black beans on hand? Use pinto beans instead. If peppers and onions aren't enough for you, toss in some diced tomatoes or additional vegetables.

Don't be afraid to stray from the recipe and make it your own!

How to Make Tofu Sofritas

Start by draining and pressing extra-firm tofu. You can either wrap the tofu in paper towels on a plate and place a heavy cast-iron skillet on top or use a tofu press. Either way works and honestly, if you're pressed for time—you can skip the step completely. Just make sure to drain the tofu very well.

Crumble the tofu up in a skillet using a wooden spoon or potato masher. Cook it in a little olive oil, then set aside. As the tofu cooks, combine chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, onion, garlic, lemon juice, tomato paste, sugar, salt, and water together in a food processor. Mix until smooth, then transfer to skillet with tofu. Let the sofritas cook while you prepare the other vegetables!

How to Make Cilantro Lime Rice

Making cilantro lime rice couldn't be easier! Once you make it at home once, you're hooked for a lifetime. Using Success Basmati Rice is another game changer because of how simple it is. The best part is that you still get the same taste and perfect chew.

To cook the rice, bring water to a boil and prepare two bags of Success Basmati white rice. The secret is remembering to toss a bay leaf into the water. After about 10 minutes, remove the bags of rice and discard the bay leaf. Open the packages; pour into a bowl; stir in fresh cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper; and you're done!

Homemade Burrito Bowl

To assemble burrito bowls, portion out cilantro lime rice. Top with desired amount of tofu sofritas, veggies, and black beans. Sprinkle on chopped red onion and tomatoes, and don't forget that spoonful of guacamole on top.

Customize Your Burrito Bowl

Make your bowl your own by drizzling hot sauce on top or adding corn salsa for more of a crunch. Even though guac is a classic, sliced avocado works just fine and tastes delicious too.

If you're dairy-free, do a dollop of plain yogurt alternative in place of sour cream. It makes the bowl creamy and delicious!
