Vegetarian burrito with peppers and zucchini: the recipe from scratch!

Vegetarian burritos with peppers and zucchini are a tasty take on the traditional Mexican dish

Vegetarian burritos with peppers and zucchini are an ideal alternative for those who do not like or have stopped eating meat, with which burritos are usually prepared. The original recipe, in fact, provides for a filling of beef, pork or chicken, ingredients that are clearly not included in a vegetarian diet .

The taste of these vegetarian burritos, while completely different from the original Tex Mex cuisine, is nevertheless inviting. You can prepare the tortillas (or the coating of the burritos) yourself, but you can also find them ready-made in the most well-stocked supermarkets.

Preparing the recipe for the vegetarian burrito

1. To make your own vegetarian burritos with peppers and zucchini, start making tortillas (unless you bought them ready-made). Mix flour, oil, water and salt, and work quickly on a plane.
2. Leave to rest for half an hour and then divide into eight loaves.
