Review of Amy's Breakfast Burrito

Amy's -- Breakfast Burrito (vegan)
Overall Rating: 4/5
Summary: The whole wheat tortilla shell is soft and tender, and crunchy at the ends. It's also packed with stuffing. The flavours are absolutely delicious and complex with spices, onions, and beans. However, I found that the texture was a bit mushy, with most of the stuffing kind of squished together into a mash. The tofu was diced into very small chunks so didn't stand out too much. Texturally speaking, the potatoes probably stood out the most. The beans, garlic, and onions were my favourite flavours. Adding more pepper would have added a nice kick to the burrito.
