Avocado Tortilla Wrap Ingredients
- Cashews: Provides creaminess to the sauce. Substitute with almonds if needed.
- Chipotle in Adobo: Adds a smoky flavor. You can use smoked paprika as an alternative.
- Nutritional Yeast: For a cheesy flavor without dairy.
- Coriander: Fresh only for this one. Parsley would work too.
- Wholemeal Wrap: For a source of whole grains. Opt for gluten-free wraps if you have an intolerance.
Step-by-Step Instructions
First, we prep the main elements of the wrap. Blend the Cream: Combine cashews, soy milk, nutritional yeast, and chipotle for a creamy, smoky sauce. Prepare the Salsa: Mix coriander, lime juice, tomato, and red onion for a fresh salsa.
Next, we prepare the wrap by cutting a small incision for easier folding. Add the main elements, each in a separate quadrant. Fold the wrap into a triangle shape by folding each quadrant over itself. Then grill on a pan for a crispy finish and cut with a breadknife to enjoy!
