Blackened Tofu Caesar Wrap

A well-seared, peppery crust keeps the tofu from disappearing into the creamy Caesar filling. Wrapped while the tofu is still warm, the salad stays cool and crunchy alongside it.

Instructions

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Tofu: Remove the Marinated Tofu from the marinade and pat it dry with paper towels.1 lb Marinated Tofu
  2. Season the Tofu: Coat the tofu evenly with Blackening Seasoning on all sides.2 tbsp Blackening Seasoning
  3. Blacken the Tofu: Heat a grill pan or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the avocado oil. Grill or sear the tofu for 3–4 minutes per side, until dark, crusted, and hot all the way through.1 tbsp avocado oil, seasoned tofu
  4. Slice the Tofu: Transfer the tofu to a cutting board and let it rest for 2 minutes. Slice into strips.blackened tofu
  5. Prepare the Caesar Salad: Make or gather the Vegan Caesar Salad and chop it slightly smaller than you would for a plated salad so it fits neatly inside the wraps.4 cups Vegan Caesar Salad
  6. Warm the Tortillas: Warm the whole wheat tortillas in a dry skillet, on a griddle, or wrapped in foil in the oven until soft and flexible.4 whole wheat tortillas
  7. Build the Wraps: Divide the Vegan Caesar Salad between the tortillas. Add the blackened tofu strips, Roma tomatoes, and red onion.prepared Caesar salad, blackened tofu, 2 roma tomatoes, ½ cup red onion
  8. Roll and Serve: Fold in the sides of each tortilla, roll tightly, slice in half, and serve immediately. Garnish with lemon wedges.prepared wraps, lemon wedges

Notes

  • Dry the Tofu Before Seasoning: The tofu should be dry enough for the Blackening Seasoning to stick and form a proper crust.
  • Use the Standalone Blend: Blackening Seasoning keeps this recipe shorter and lets the same seasoning work across tofu, fish, chicken, steak, vegetables, and mushrooms.
  • Cook Hot: Blackening needs a hot pan or grill. You want the spices to darken and toast without steaming the tofu.
  • Chop the Caesar Smaller: A wrap needs smaller pieces than a plated Caesar salad so every bite has tofu, romaine, dressing, tomato, and onion.
  • Warm the Tortilla: Whole wheat tortillas roll much better when warm and flexible.
  • Vegan Check: Use vegan tortillas and the vegan Caesar components if you want the full wrap to stay vegan.
