Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 1 package of plant-based ground meat
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon vegan Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Wraps and Toppings
- 4 large tortilla wraps
- 4 slices of vegan cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1 large tomato, sliced
- 1/2 cup pickles, sliced
Sauces
- 1/4 cup vegan mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 2 tablespoons mustard
Instructions
- Sauté Onions and Garlic: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until translucent. Add minced garlic and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
- Cook Plant-Based Meat: Add plant-based ground meat to the skillet. Break it up with a spatula and cook for 5-7 minutes until browned. Stir in soy sauce or tamari, tomato paste, vegan Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt. Mix well and cook for 2-3 more minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Prepare Tortillas: Lay tortillas flat or warm them for 10-15 seconds in a skillet or microwave for easy rolling.
- Assemble Wraps: Spread a thin layer of vegan mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard on each tortilla. Place one slice of vegan cheddar cheese on top, followed by a generous scoop of the cooked filling. Add shredded lettuce, tomato slices, and pickles.
- Roll and Grill Wraps (Optional): Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll from the bottom up to secure the filling. For a crispy finish, grill the wraps in a skillet for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Notes
- You can substitute the plant-based ground meat with cooked lentils or mushrooms for a different texture.
- Adjust the amount of smoked paprika and black pepper to suit your taste preferences.
- Grilling the wraps after rolling is optional but adds a pleasant crunch and melts the vegan cheese nicely.
- Use gluten-free tortillas if you want to make this recipe gluten-free.
- Store any leftovers in the refrigerator and consume within 2 days for best freshness.
