I had never cooked with seitan before. Now I think I'll do it more often! One suggestion though, Use smaller tortillas. There was a little too much tortilla on the 10 in ones for my taste. I substituted 6 jalepenos for the habaneros, it was great!

This recipe was great! I made a few modifcations based on what I had in my kitchen. I didn't make rice, and instead of peppers and some of the onions I used mushrooms, spinach, and sprouts, along with hot pepper flakes. Very tasty!

yums! I used tempeh instead of seitan and next time will put a little less habanero (maybe 1 or 1 1/2) cause it was spicy. The leftovers were great for lunch.

For yummystuff99. Seitan is a meat substitute made from wheat gluten. It has a chewy texture and can be seasoned to taste like just about anything. You can find it at your store usually in the same section you would find veg deli slices and possibly near the water-packed tofu. I highly recommend you give it a try. You can also make it yourself out of vital wheat gluten. There are lots of great recipes out there. My favorite comes from the Post Punk Kitchen website. These burritos were awsome, by the way. My bbq addict fiance refused to share.

My compliments to the chef! It is unusual, but the flavors came together nicely. Made it for a birthday dinner for a non-vegetarian and it was enjoyed by all. I always like to pan-fry the seitan before adding it to a dish to give it a nice crispiness. Also, I used more than a bottle of barbecue sauce. I think it might be nice to use two different kinds- maybe a nice thick one for the filling and a slightly more marinadish one for the top. A thinner bbq sauce I really like is Frontera brand, with a bright yellow label. I topped with cheese before baking, and served with sour cream- yum yum!

I hate to rain on the parade, but this one didn't do it for me...WAY too much barbecue sauce. The filling isn't bad by itself, though.

this is very good.. i modified the sauce for the topping.. i used a large can of diced tomatos.. 1/2 went with the stuffing and then i blended the other 1/2 of tomatos with the BBQ sauce (this way i got more milage out of the topping)..this was a very good recipe to freeze..

Lovely and very tasty and well worth the time to slap together. You really DO need to coat the assembled burritos very well before baking or they will carmelize and burn. I fed this to "the guys" for lunch and they never knew it had seitan in it.

This is a fabulous recipe! I tweaked it just a bit, though. I used jalapenos instead of habaneros, shredded tempeh instead of seitan, and omitted the cilantro & green onions (didn't have them on hand). I added some shredded low-fat cheese, and used a mesquite barbeque sauce, which added a nice flavor. Next time I may add some corn. For spreading in the pan and coating the burritos, I cut the bbq sauce with a bit of water, to make it less gloppy and more of a sauce (I used a very thick bbq sauce). I baked it covered with foil, then removed the foil for the last 5-10 minutes. That kept the burritos nice and moist. The recipe makes a lot; freeze the leftovers individually for quick, microwaveable lunches. This recipe is definitely a keeper and will go into my regular meal rotation!

Excellent recipe. The flavor and texture of the food was pleasing to the senses. This was the first time I used habanero peppers, so I put in two large ones - boy was it hot! I think next time I'll use 1/2 a pepper.

Real tastey and simple to put together, but watch out for how much chile's you use if children are going to eat it.

Fantastic recipe. My grocery store did not have seitan, so I used tempeh instead. It was the perfect texture for the burritos. I used 3 habaneros because I like things spicy, and used a sweet BBQ sauce to counterbalance it.

This is the best new recipe I have made in a long time. This makes a very large quantity. I left out the bell peppers and cilantro since we don't care for those. I also substituted a small can of diced jalapenos for the habanero. Delicious!! The additional baking time at the end can be shortened if you are starving like we were - prep time was an hour for me.

An exceptional recipe. Granted, a bit labor-intensive, unless you have a food processor (I don't), but I found it to be tastier than expected and easy to put together. A did make a few substitutions in the recipe, though. First, I substituted 3 jalepenos for the habanero (my area grocery stores don't even carry serranos) and tofu for seitan (again, my store didn't have it). Second, I used a spicy BBQ sauce -- same amount, just a bit more kick to it. The end result was quite spicy, which is the way I like it, so be careful. :)

This was a great dish! Chopping veges is the most time consuming part of this dish. But don't let this stop you from making it! I didn't have enough barbeque sauce, so ended up toppin w/grated cheese in an effort to keep the burritos from getting too crispy. They turned out great! Even the kids like them, but one child was turned off by all the onion/bell peppers, the other the seitan. Otherwise, they thought they were great!

What great taste! I added black olives and extra cilantro. I also added a little cajun seasoning to the rice while it cooked. I surprised my roommate with the recipe, and we both loved it.
