Takes 10 minutes

Serves 2

Ingredients
 

  • 1 x 200g block of firm tofu
  • 3 tablespoons of tamari/soy sauce divided
  • 1 tsp turmeric powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • Pinch of garlic powder
  • 1 x 400g tin of kidney beans
  • 10 cherry tomatoes
  • 1 bunch of scallions
  • 2-3 large wholemeal wraps
  • 1 ripe avocados
  • 1 lime
  • Salt & black pepper to taste

Optional Serving suggestions:

  • Cherry tomatoes
  • Kimchi
  • Spicy BBQ sauce
  • Fresh coriander

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Scrambled Tofu: Put a wide bottom pan on a high heat and add 1 tbsp of oil. Crumble the tofu into the pan along with a pinch of salt and cook for 2 minutes stirring regularly. Mix in 1 tablespoon of tamari (or soy sauce), ½ tsp turmeric powder, ½ tsp of smoked paprika and a pinch of garlic powder, mix well and cook for a further minute. Add a splash of oat milk and deglaze the pan.
  • Prepare the Refried Beans Salsa: Finely chop the scallions and cut the cherry tomatoes in half. Drain and rinse the kidney beans. Heat the wide-bottom pan over high heat, add the beans, a pinch of salt, and 1⁄2 teaspoon of black pepper. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add 70ml of water and the remaining 1 tablespoon of tamari/soy sauce and heat for a further minute. Mash the beans using a potato masher until they have a smooth, paste-like texture (you may need to add a little more water). Add the scallions and cherry tomatoes and mix them right through it and continue cooking for a further minute.
  • Make the Guacamole: Halve the avocado and remove the stone. Scoop out the flesh, chop it into small pieces, and transfer to a bowl. Add a pinch of salt, black pepper, and the juice of the 1 lime. Mash to your desired texture using a potato masher or fork. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  • Toast the Wraps: Place a wide-bottom pan over high heat. Once hot, reduce to medium heat. Toast each wrap/tortilla on the pan for about 1-2 minutes on each side or until it toasts and starts to golden. Repeat until all wraps are toasted.
  • Serve: Place a toasted wrap on each plate and spoon on a serving of each of the components. Wrap and roll and enjoy!
