- 1/2 Tsp each: chili flakes and cinnamon

- 1 Tbsp vinegar or lemon juice
- 1 chili, finely chopped
- A handful of fresh parsley
- Salt and pepper to taste
🌶️ For the Sauce & Assembly:

- A splash of water to thin the sauce
- 3 Tortillas

👩🍳 How to Make It
- Cook the Lentils: Heat a bit of oil in a pan. Add the onion, rinsed lentils, spices, and tomato paste. Fry everything together for 5-7 minutes until fragrant and warm.
- Mix the Salsa: In a separate bowl, toss together the chopped bell pepper, corn, chili, parsley, vinegar (or lemon juice), salt, and pepper.
- Whisk the Sauce: In a small dish, mix the vegan cream cheese (or yogurt), hot sauce, maple syrup, and vinegar. Add just a tiny bit of water to thin it into a drizzle-friendly consistency.
- Assemble & Grill: Lay out your tortillas. Layer the lettuce, spiced lentils, veggie salsa, and a generous drizzle of sauce. Roll it up tightly, then grill each side on a hot pan for 2-3 minutes until golden and crispy!
Say goodbye to hangry afternoons! Enjoy your delicious, crispy burrito! 🌯
