Ingredients

  • 1 extra firm package tofu drained and pressed
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 4 large tortillas
  • 1 cup matchstick carrots
  • 1 cup diced red cabbage
  • 1 medium red pepper sliced
  • cilantro (optional topping)

Peanut Sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400 F. Cut your tofu into long strips (~1-1.5 inches wide). My block made about 12 strips (3 strips per wrap).
  • Lay out your tofu strips on a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer. Sprinkle the top of the tofu with garlic powder (total of about ½ tsp) and a little bit of salt. This will give your tofu a little bit more flavor.
  • Bake your tofu for ~22-25 minutes until golden brown on the outside and crispy. *No need to flip halfway- it will get crispy on all surfaces.
  • As the tofu cooks, whisk together your peanut sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Add more water if needed for desired texture.
  • Assemble. your wrap. On a flat surface lay out your tortilla. Add strips of red pepper in the center horizontally, leaving some space at the edges.
  • Next, layer on the carrots and the cabbage.
  • Add your tofu strips (About 3 strips). Drizzle with a generous amount of peanut sauce. Sprinkle on cilantro if desired.
  • Fold the sides of the tortilla over the fillings. Starting from one end, gently tuck the edge of the tortilla over the fillings and roll it tightly, applying gentle pressure as you go. Continue rolling until you reach the other end of the tortilla. The fillings should be securely wrapped inside.
  • Optional: Grill your finished wrap. Cut in half with a sharp knife and enjoy!

Notes

Tips:
    • If possible, I recommend grilling your wrap. Grilling the wrap can give it a crispy and toasted exterior while keeping the inside warm and soft. Use a grill pan or a basic non-stick pan and grill your finished wrap for a few minutes on each side (with or without oil). 
    • Try to find the biggest tortillas at your grocery store. This will make it so much easier to roll!
    • If your tortilla is cold or stiff, it can crack or tear when you try to roll it. To make it more pliable, you can briefly heat the tortilla in a microwave or on a skillet until it becomes soft and flexible.
    • Drizzle on LOTS of sauce! This is what brings all the flavors of the wrap together.
 
Substitutions & Variations:
To make this wrap gluten-free:
    • Use a gluten-free tortilla
    • Substitute tamari or coconut aminos for soy sauce
Other additions to this wrap:
    • Any type of veggies you like! Chopped romaine lettuce, bean sprouts, yellow or orange pepper, cucumber or any of your favorite vegetables.
    • Avocado slices add a creaminess to this wrap that is to die for.
