Equipment
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup white rice
- 14 oz extra firm tofu pressed
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp onion powder
- 1 tbsp smoked paprika
- sea salt, unrefined to taste
- black pepper, ground to taste
- ⅓ cup Franks Original Hot Sauce
- 1½ cup romaine lettuce shredded
- ¼ cup celery thinly diced
- ½ cup red cabbage shredded
- 2 green onion sliced
- ¼ cup shredded carrots
- 1 avocado sliced
- 4 flour tortillas burrito size
Instructions
- Cook the rice according to the package instructions. When done, fluff and set it aside.
- Next, grate the tofu into large shreds.
- Heat the oil in a sauté pan over medium-high heat and add the tofu, garlic, and smoked paprika. Cook for 4 - 5 minutes.
- Then add the Hot Sauce sauce. Cook for another 1 - 2 minutes and take it off the heat.
- Assemble the wraps with cooked rice in the middle, then topping it with the tofu, lettuce, celery, green onion, carrots and avocado.
- Wrap it up and toast it in a grill pan.
Notes
- Make it ahead: Prep the tofu filling up to 3 days in advance and store in the fridge. Assemble wraps fresh when ready to eat.
- Low-carb version: Skip the tortilla and serve the filling over a bed of leafy greens or in lettuce cups.
- Heat level: Use more or less hot sauce based on your spice tolerance, Frank’s mild is great for a gentler kick or try the buffalo sauce.
- Extra protein boost: Add hemp seeds, chopped walnuts, or a spoonful of hummus inside the wrap.
- Want extra-crispy tofu? Toss tofu cubes in 1 tbsp of cornstarch before baking or air frying. It gives them a crispy finish that holds up beautifully to the sauce.
- Large flour tortillas: Flour tortillas are flexible and easy to wrap, but you can use whatever tortillas you like (or serve naked in a bowl).
- Extra-firm tofu: Look for tofu labeled “extra-firm” or “super-firm” in the refrigerated section near produce or plant-based items. It holds up best for shredding and crisping.
