This Sweet Potato Sushi Burrito Is Vegan Dreams Come True
We know, we get it: Sushi Burritos are the Internet's fault. But, when it comes to spicy sweet potato subbing for spicy tuna in this vegan version, we might be on the train. It's really not hard to love the sushi burrito—it's essentially everybody's basic sushi dreams in one, portable option. What could be better? (Did we mention again this recipe is vegan?)
