    The inspiration for these wraps came from an Instagram story that Angela of Oh She Glows shared awhile back of a wrap that she had been enjoying from a vegan restaurant in Canmore, Alberta. I loved the concept of a wrap filled with hummus, vegan Caesar salad dressing, and colourful vegetables. The version she was eating had edamame, but I decided to use my crispy baked tofu instead. All in all, this ended up reminding me of a chicken caesar wrap done vegan… and way more colourful! 

    I’m quickly writing up this post before I head out to meet a friend at The Green Door for dinner… we’ve both been craving their chocolate cake like nobody’s business this last little while- so I’m going to attempt to make this post relatively short… or at the very least, no long-winded! So, I’ll get right down to the ingredients now.

    ingredients you’ll need

    For the crispy baked tofu, you’ll need firm or extra-firm tofu, extra-virgin olive oil, tamari, barbecue sauce, and arrowroot starch. 

    For the cashew caesar dressing, you’ll need cashews, lemon juice, lemon zest, Worcestershire sauce, capers, garlic, maple syrup, dijon mustard, extra-virgin olive oil, sea salt, and water. Note: This makes more than you need for the wraps, but it keeps well in a jar in the fridge for a week… you’ll be happy to have it on hand for a salad dressing as the week goes on. 

    For the wraps, you’ll need hummus, arugula, avocado, carrots, and beets.

    the method

    Start with the tofu: Preheat the oven to 400 F. Line one large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the tofu in a medium bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, tamari, barbecue sauce, and starch. Pour over the tofu and toss to coat. Transfer onto the baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, until brown and crispy. 

    Make the cashew caesar dressing: In a blender, combine the cashews, lemon juice and zest, Worcestershire sauce, capers, garlic, maple syrup, mustard, olive oil, salt, and water in a blender. Blend until smooth. If too thick to blend, add another tablespoon of two of water. Note that the dressing should be on the thicker side, however. 

    Assemble the wraps: Spread a few tablespoons of hummus over each tortilla. Top with tofu, beets, carrots, arugula, dressing, and avocado. Wrap and serve!
