Ingredients:
Wraps:
4 large lettuce leaves: Acts as a fresh and crunchy base.
1 cup chopped tomato: Provides juiciness and a burst of flavor.
1/4 cup finely chopped pepperoncini (optional): Adds a tangy and slightly spicy kick.
4 (~8inch) wraps of choice: Use storebought or homemade flatbread or pita; opt for glutenfree if needed.
1 batch Crispy Baked Tofu with Italian Herbs: Adds a proteinpacked, flavorful filling.
Sauce:
2 small cloves garlic (crushed or minced): Delivers a bold, aromatic kick.
1 healthy pinch each of sea salt and black pepper: Adjust to taste.
1/2 cup plain hummus: Creamy base for the sauce; we used Hope brand.
1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil: Adds richness and smoothness.
2 tsp apple cider vinegar: Provides tangy brightness.
3/4 tsp maple syrup (optional): Balances the flavors with a hint of sweetness.
Instructions:
1. Prepare Flatbreads:
If making homemade flatbread (e.g., Garlic Herb or GlutenFree), prepare it now and set aside. Storebought flatbreads can be used directly for convenience.
2. Prepare Tofu:
If you don’t already have a batch of Crispy Baked Tofu with Italian Herbs, make it now and set aside. This can also be prepared up to 34 days in advance for easy meal prep.
3. Make the Sauce:
In a small mixing bowl, combine hummus, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, garlic, salt, pepper, and maple syrup (if using). Whisk until smooth and creamy. Adjust consistency by adding water to thin or more hummus to thicken. Taste and adjust flavors as needed by adding more vinegar for brightness, garlic for zing, maple syrup for sweetness, or salt and pepper for balance.
4. Assemble Wraps:
Lay each wrap (pita or flatbread) flat on a clean surface. Place 1 lettuce leaf on each wrap, followed by ~1/2 cup Crispy Baked Tofu, 1/4 cup chopped tomato, and 1 Tbsp pepperoncini (if using). Drizzle ~23 Tbsp of sauce over the filling.
5. Serve:
Wrap tightly and enjoy immediately. These wraps are best fresh but can be prepared in advance if needed. For meal prep, store components (tofu, sauce, and vegetables) separately in airtight containers for up to 34 days in the refrigerator. Both tofu and flatbreads can also be frozen for longer storage.
Tips for Success:
Flatbread Options: Choose wraps or flatbreads with a soft and pliable texture for easier wrapping.
Customizations: Add avocado, shredded carrots, or fresh herbs for additional flavor and texture.
Make It Spicy: Add a drizzle of hot sauce or sprinkle of red pepper flakes for extra heat.
