- 1 block firm tofu, pressed and drained - 1 cup smoky BBQ sauce (store-bought or homemade) - 1 red bell pepper, sliced - 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced - 1 red onion, sliced - 2 tablespoons olive oil - 1 teaspoon smoked paprika - Salt and pepper to taste - 4 large whole wheat tortillas - 1 cup fresh spinach or mixed greens The main ingredients create a rich and tasty meal. Firm tofu holds the flavors well. Smoky BBQ sauce adds depth and sweetness. Fresh veggies bring color and crunch to each bite. - Sliced avocados - Fresh cilantro These optional garnishes add creaminess and freshness. Avocados are rich and smooth. Cilantro gives a bright touch to the wraps. - Baking sheet - Parchment paper - Mixing bowl - Knife and cutting board - Skillet or microwave Having the right tools makes cooking easier. A baking sheet lined with parchment helps with cleanup. A sharp knife and cutting board are key for slicing veggies and tofu. Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). This step is key for getting that perfect crispy tofu. While the oven heats up, line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This makes for easy cleanup later. Now, take a block of firm tofu, press it, and drain it well. Cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes and place them in a big mixing bowl. Next, pour in ½ cup of smoky BBQ sauce and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika. Season it all with salt and pepper to taste. Toss the tofu until it gets a good coat of sauce. Spread the tofu cubes on one side of the baking sheet. On the other side, arrange sliced red and yellow bell peppers along with sliced red onion. Drizzle these veggies with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Now, bake it all in your preheated oven for about 25 to 30 minutes. Halfway through, stir the tofu and veggies so they cook evenly. You want the tofu golden and the veggies tender. While your tofu and veggies bake, warm up 4 large whole wheat tortillas. You can do this in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds. Once the tofu and veggies are done, take them out of the oven and drizzle the rest of the BBQ sauce over them. Mix gently. To assemble each wrap, place a handful of fresh spinach or mixed greens in the middle of a tortilla. Add a good scoop of the smoky BBQ tofu mixture on top. For a fun twist, include sliced avocados and sprinkle with cilantro if you like. Roll up the tortilla tightly, folding in the sides as you go. Finally, slice the wraps in half diagonally and serve them warm. Enjoy your meal! Pressing tofu is key for this recipe. Start with firm tofu. Wrap the block in a clean towel. Place a cutting board on top. Add a heavy object, like a pot. Let it sit for at least 15 minutes. This removes excess water. Drier tofu absorbs more flavor and becomes crispier when cooked. You can swap ingredients based on what you have. Try using tempeh instead of tofu for a nuttier taste. If you don’t have smoky BBQ sauce, try teriyaki or sweet chili sauce. Bell peppers can be replaced with zucchini or mushrooms. Use any greens you prefer; arugula or kale also work great. You can make this dish even better with add-ins and seasonings. Consider adding corn or black beans for extra texture. You might want to add jalapeños for spice. Fresh herbs like basil or dill can elevate the flavors. Try including different cheeses for creaminess. Mix in some lime juice for a fresh zing! {{image_2}} Tofu is a great choice for these wraps, but you can mix it up. Tempeh gives a nutty flavor and firm texture. You can also use chickpeas for a hearty bite. If you're not vegan, shredded chicken or pork can work well too. Just adjust the cooking time to ensure everything cooks evenly. The bell peppers and onions are tasty, but feel free to switch things up! Zucchini or mushrooms add a nice twist. You can also try corn for a sweet crunch. Carrots or broccoli are great for added color and nutrition. Get creative with what you have. While a smoky BBQ sauce is delicious, you can experiment! Try a spicy sauce for heat or a sweet sauce for a different flavor. You can even make your own BBQ sauce using ketchup, vinegar, and spices. Mixing different sauces can change the whole taste of your wraps. To keep your smoky BBQ tofu wraps fresh, store them in an airtight container. Make sure they cool down to room temperature before sealing. This helps avoid moisture build-up. Place a paper towel between layers if you stack them. This will help absorb any extra moisture. They can stay fresh in the fridge for up to three days. When you're ready to enjoy your leftovers, reheat them gently. You can use a skillet over low heat. This method keeps the wraps from getting soggy. Heat for about 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway through. You can also use a microwave. Heat them for 30 seconds to 1 minute, checking often. If you want to freeze your wraps, first wrap each one in plastic wrap. Then place them in a freezer bag. Remove as much air as possible before sealing. They can stay in the freezer for up to three months. To thaw, move them to the fridge overnight. Reheat as mentioned above when you're ready to eat. Yes, this recipe is vegan.

Ingredients
  

1 block firm tofu, pressed and drained

1 cup smoky BBQ sauce (store-bought or homemade)

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 yellow bell pepper, sliced

1 red onion, sliced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

4 large whole wheat tortillas

1 cup fresh spinach or mixed greens

Optional: sliced avocados and cilantro for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    Cut the pressed tofu into bite-sized cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.

      Add ½ cup of the smoky BBQ sauce, olive oil, smoked paprika, and season with salt and pepper. Toss the tofu until well coated.

        Spread the coated tofu onto one side of the prepared baking sheet.

          On the other side, arrange the sliced bell peppers and red onion. Drizzle with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

            Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the tofu is golden and the vegetables are tender.

              While the tofu and veggies are baking, warm the whole wheat tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds until pliable.

                Once the tofu and veggies are done, remove them from the oven and drizzle with the remaining BBQ sauce, mixing gently.

                  To assemble the wraps, place a handful of fresh spinach or mixed greens in the middle of each tortilla, followed by a generous amount of the smoky BBQ tofu mixture.

                    Add optional sliced avocados and sprinkle with cilantro if desired. Roll up the tortilla tightly, folding in the sides as you go.

                      Slice the wraps in half diagonally and serve warm.
