These Beyond Meat Burritos are filled with cilantro lime rice, black beans, salsa, cheddar, meatless crumbles, & grilled to perfection.
We have some version of a grilled burrito or quesadilla about once a week in our house.
(Such as my popular Grilled Potato Spinach Quesadillas and my Bean Rice Tofu Grilled Burritos.)
These Beyond Meat Burritos are part of the regular grilled-tortilla-meal rotation at our house. They’ve been a family favorite for years.
Filled with cilantro lime rice, Beyond Meat Beef Crumbles (or your favorite meatless veggie crumbles), black beans, salsa, and cheddar (or vegan cheddar to keep this a vegan dish), my Beyond Meat Burritos are a meal we’ve always enjoyed together as a family, even when my daughter was a picky eater.
They also make an excellent meal for entertaining, as the filling can be made in advance: make the filling earlier in the day, or even the night before you have guests. All you’ll have left to do is compile and grill the burritos just before your guests arrive.
This burrito filling—layers of cilantro lime rice, meatless veggie crumbles, black beans, salsa, and cheddar—is baked just until the cheddar melts. It’s a delicious meal by itself if you don’t feel like grilling burritos.
But grill the burritos at least once. I’m sure they’ll become a household favorite, just as they are for us.
An offset spatula makes it easy to compile the filling layers in this recipe.
You can find my favorite offset spatula set here on Amazon [aff. link], or in my Amazon store here.
I call these Beyond Meat Grilled Burritos because Beyond Meat is the meat substitute that most are familiar with these days.
But I prefer to use Morning Star Farms Veggie Griller Crumbles in this recipe. Morning Star Farms Veggie Griller Crumbles is cheaper, easier to find, and doesn’t overpower the other flavors in these burritos.
But ultimately, you should use whatever ground beef substitute tastes the best to you.

Yum. I think I could eat chipotle shoe soles! I love their flavor so much. Great recipe!
Thanks so much Mimi! These are definitely a favorite in our house! ♥️
I love the sound of all of these ingredients squished together in a burrito! That looks and sound like a perfect light dinner to me. And what a great idea to offer these when you’re entertaining! I bet all the guests, young and old(er), would absolutely love this. Thanks for sharing, Shannon, and hope you’ve been well.
Thanks Katerina! These are definitely a favorite of ours to serve for guests! Awww thanks so much hope you’ve been well too my friend!
How have I never grilled a burrito before!? You know me – I grill everything! We grill quesadillas quite often, but for some reason, I’ve never thought about grilling a burrito. That has to change soon. These sound amazing…that cilantro-lime rice is a game-changer! 🙂
Thanks David! Oh you definitely need to try grilling burritos! A grill master like yourself would make an absolutely STUNNING grilled burrito! But I warn you, they are addicting! 😆😋
