Preparation

  2. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté for 3 minutes. Then add grated carrot and minced garlic, stirring frequently for about 2 minutes.
  3. Pour in vegetable broth and peas, cover with a lid, and cook for another 5 minutes. Remove the lid and let the filling cool slightly.
  4. In a large bowl, mix the sautéed vegetable filling with mashed potatoes and vegan cheese. Stir until well-combined and creamy.
  5. Preheat your oven to 410°F (210°C) and line a baking pan with parchment paper.
  6. Warm the tortillas and spoon filling onto each, then roll them tightly seam-side down on the baking sheet.
  7. Brush the tops with a little oil and bake for 17-20 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  8. Once baked, let them cool slightly and serve warm with salsa or guacamole.
