Get ready for summer with these refreshing and delicious wraps!
An easy veggie wrap is my favourite lunch lately. This healthy recipe is quick to prepare, and makes an easy & filling vegetarian meal.
Serves: 2
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients
1 large carrot
½ medium cucumber
1 mango
10 leaves of lettuce of choice
1 tbsp. sesame seeds (optional)
6 oz. (175g) marinated smoked tofu or tempeh (optional)
4 rice wraps
Homemade Dipping Sauce:
1 lime
1 tsp. agave syrup
Instructions
1. Peel and slice the carrots, cucumber and mango into long thin matchsticks. 2. Chop the tofu into small cubes. Wash and dry the lettuce. 3. Hydrate the rice wraps one at a time in lukewarm water. After hydrating, fill each wrap with ¼ amount of vegetables and tofu near the edge of the wrap. 4. Roll up the wraps by folding the sides over your ingredients and rolling it up like a burrito. If it is too hard to roll. Take out some of the ingredients. If your rice wrap keeps ripping, it is too wet and over hydrated. 5. Once all the wraps are wrapped up, sprinkle with the sesame seeds. 6. For the dipping sauce, juice one lime and add 1 teaspoon of agave syrup and stir to combine. Serve the sauce with the wraps. Note: You can substitute the homemade dipping sauce with ¼ cup of store-bought sweet chilli sauce or a peanut dressing.
