Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • Sesame seeds (2 tablespoons)
  • Lettuce leaves (8 large)
  • Spring onions (4, chopped)
  • Cucumber (1, sliced)
  • Carrot (1 large, julienned)
  • Red bell pepper (1, sliced)
  • Whole wheat tortillas (4)
  • Teriyaki sauce (1 cup)
  • Firm tofu (14 ounces, cut into strips)

Instructions

  1. In a shallow dish, marinate the tofu strips in half of the teriyaki sauce for 15 minutes.
  2. While the tofu is marinating, prepare your vegetables and set them aside.
  3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the marinated tofu. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the tofu is golden brown and heated through.
  4. Warm the whole wheat tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, or in the microwave for 10-15 seconds.
  5. To assemble the wraps, place a lettuce leaf on each tortilla and top it with the cooked tofu strips.
  6. Add the sliced red bell pepper, julienned carrot, cucumber slices, and chopped spring onions on top of the tofu.
  7. Sprinkle each wrap with sesame seeds and drizzle the remaining teriyaki sauce over the fillings.
  8. Fold the sides of the tortilla over the fillings and roll tightly to form a wrap.
  9. Slice the wraps in half diagonally and serve immediately. Enjoy these colourful and flavourful wraps as a lunch, dinner, or a healthy snack.
