How To Make Veggie Camping Burritos

Shhhh, don’t tell my family it’s meatless

I don’t like to talk about vegetarian meals to my regular camp crowd because most of them think a meal without meat is just a starter snack.

So, when I road-tested this recipe on a recent camp trip, it took a few bites before anyone even noticed this totally satisfying and delicious recipe is actually meatless.

I love using canned beans as a meat substitute because they have great texture, are full of protein and save on the coveted cold storage space in the RV refrigerator or camp cooler (whichever you are using.)

The fresh cilantro, chives and lime really liven-up this yummy meal that can be served as easy camping lunches or for dinners.

Recipe Steps

Step 1. Heat a large skillet to medium heat and add the butter

Using cast-iron cookware at the campsite is almost “mandatory” for every meal including these campfire burritos.

This cast-iron skillet is perfect for cooking on a camping stove or directly over a campfire … and cleaning cast-iron cookware is a breeze too!

Step 2. After the butter is melted, sauté the veggies till softened

Getting the most juice out of your citrus is easy when you use a tool like this lime squeezer.

It is smaller than a regular citrus juicer and is made specifically to fit the size of limes.

You will love this tool for making this camping burritos recipe as well as making a fresh limeade beverage to wash it all down!

Step 3. Then stir in and heat the remaining veggies and seasonings

Lodge ASHH41 Silicone Hot Handle Holder, Red

If you have a cast-iron skillet but don’t have a silicone hot handle holder to go with it, you are missing out!

The high heat resistance silicone protects hands up to 450 degrees and is designed to fit snugly on Lodge traditional-style handles.

You’ll love it for this vegetarian burrito recipe or any other camp meal for that matter!

Step 4. Remove from heat and stir in the cheese and cilantro

Camp Cooking Tip: If your stuffing mixture has lots of liquid because your tomatoes are super juicy or you didn’t drain the beans or corn enough, just use a slotted spoon to drain then distribute the bean mixture.

Stainless steel utensils are great at the campsite because you can lean them on hot cookware without problems.

This particular stainless steel slotted spoon also has a hole in the handle for hanging on hooks in an RV or in a camp kitchen.

These grilled veggie burritos have a great crunchy texture as long as you drain the excess liquid before stuffing and grilling the tortilla.

Step 5. Spoon heated bean mixture in center of tortillas and fold closing in the edges.

Heat a grill pan or large skillet. Add enough oil or cooking spray to lightly coat the pan.

You are going to crisp the tortilla now, turn until all sides are toasted and golden brown (this will take about a minute or two per side).

If you are making this grilled veggie burrito recipe to feed a big crowd, using a griddle will speed up the process and allow you to cook more at the same time.

I love the versatility of this cast-iron reversible grill/griddle… you can cook pancakes in the morning and flip it over to grill steaks in the afternoon with one piece of equipment!

Camp Cooking Tip: If you are cooking these burritos over a campfire, a cast iron pancake griddle pan works great but if you are using a smaller skillet or grill pan you may have to toast these in batches.

They crisp so quickly that batch cooking still allows everyone to eat together (depending on how many campers are in your group.)

Step 6. Serve warm with a side of sour cream garnished with chopped fresh chives.

The easiest way to chop chives for this grilled stuffed burrito recipe is actually not to chop them at all!

I like cutting fresh chives with kitchen shears to make quick work of it.

I especially like the protective blade guard that comes with this pair that is also dishwasher-safe with stainless steel blades and soft grip handles.
