Vegan Crunchwraps Recipe
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons of frozen vegan crumbles
- 1 10-inch burrito-size flour tortilla
- 3 tablespoons of vegan queso
- 1 flat yellow corn tostada shell
- 3 tablespoons of vegan sour cream
- 1 roma tomato, diced
- Shredded iceberg lettuce
- 1 taco-size flour tortilla
Instructions
- Cook the vegan crumbles according to package instructions (shredded or crumbled tofu would work too, seasoned with taco seasoning). Set aside.
- Have a large skillet ready on the stove.
- On a clean surface, place the large flour tortilla, add the 3 tablespoons of vegan queso to the middle and spread it to match the size of the tostada shell.
- Add the 3 tablespoons of vegan crumbles on top of the queso. Lightly press the crumbles to make a more compact layer.
- Top with the yellow corn tostada shell and spread the 3 tablespoons of vegan sour cream on top of the tostada. Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of diced tomatoes, and 2 tablespoons of lettuce. Do not overfill.
- Place the taco-size flour tortilla on top of the lettuce and lightly press down to compact it all.
- To fold, start folding the edges of the large tortilla to the top of the taco-size flour tortilla. Make sure you press each fold to ensure it does not unfold. Once all sides are folded, heat up the skillet over medium high heat.
- Once hot, carefully flip the crunchwrap and place it on the pan (side with the folds down first). Cook for 20 seconds and carefully using a spatula, lift to see if it is browning and how fast. It can burn quickly. Once it has reached a nice golden toasted color, carefully and very gently flip it and repeat the cooking process. Remove from the pan and enjoy hot.
