Ingredients

For the balsamic tofu

1 block of extra firm tofu
¼ cup balsamic vinegar
2 tbsp maple syrup or agave nectar
1 clove of garlic crushed
½ tbsp dijon mustard
pinch of salt

For the vegetable wrap (choose your favorite)

1 avocado sliced
4-8 lettuce leaves
½ english cucumber sliced in sticks
1 tomato sliced
1 red pepper sliced
1-1½ cup hummus or as needed
4 tortilla wraps

Instructions

Pat dry the tofu to remove the excess water and slice into sticks.
Warm up a large non-stick pan on medium-high heat and add the tofu sticks with a pinch of salt (with or without oil). Cook for a few minute (3-5) on each sides or until nicely browned.
While the tofu is cooking, stir together the balsamic vinegar, maple syrup, dijon mustard, garlic and salt. Whisk well and set aside.
Also prepare all the vegetables by cutting them into a stick shape as well.
When the tofu is done to your liking, turn down the heat to low. Once the pan isn't as hot, then pour the whole balsamic glaze over (careful, if the pan is too hot, it will splatter!). Move the tofu around and flip them in the sauce and keep cooking until it thickens for a few minutes (turn the heat back up if needed). Remove from the heat.
To make the wrap: lay the tortilla on a clean surface and spread some hummus all over its surface. Then, place the vegetables on the bottom half portion of the tortilla and then lay a few balsamic tofu pieces over. Fold the left and right sides of the tortilla over the fillings, and then grab the bottom of the tortilla and roll towards the top to lock in all the filling ingredients tightly. I like to also slice the wrap in half. Enjoy!

Notes

Store the balsamic tofu in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. This recipe is a great meal-prep lunch idea! Make the wrap the same day you want to eat it.
Other vegetable wrap filling ideas include: vegan mayo, arugula, spinach, shredded carrots, red onion, pickled onions, roasted red pepper, fresh herbs, etc.
Also use over bowls, noodles or even sushi rolls.
