If you love caesar salad you will be obsessed with If you love caesar salad you will be obsessed with this easy vegan wrap. Such a simple and healthy meal! Plus it makes lots of leftovers. Here’s how:

01 Prep your vegan chick’n. I used the chick’n from Daring, it comes frozen and you can cook it immediately. It takes about 5-10 minutes, cook it on both sides until it’s nice and browned or blackened.

02 Prep your chickpea croutons. Drain rinse a can of chickpeas then toss them in a tbsp or 2 of oil, a pinch of sea salt, and about 1 tsp cajun seasoning. Air fry at 400 until crispy - check them at 12 min and go from there.

03 For the salad, I bought shredded iceberg lettuce and tossed it with Trader Joe’s Vegan Dill Dressing. You only need a small amount of dressing!

04 Assemble your wrap! I used spinach tortillas that were on the smaller side, so I only needed a small amount of each ingredient.

05 Grill or pan fry your wrap so that it seals. Alternatively, you can wrap it in foil. Cut down the middle and enjoy with fresh berries :)

I love meals like this because it proves how easy I love meals like this because it proves how easy and stress-free cooking can be! I just grabbed what I had on hand and it turned out so bomb 🤤 

Here’s what I came up with:

—Roasted veggies. I used cauliflower, broccoli, butternut squash, and yellow bell pepper. I tossed the veg in @getgraza olive oil, sea salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic. Bake at 400 degrees for about 30 min stirring once halfway thru.

—Cajun Chick’n from @daringfoods SO insanely delicious and was ready in 5 minutes. Like I can’t stress how tasty this vegan chick’n is.

—Chickpea pasta @eatbanza Kept it super simple and just stirred in a cube of vegan butter. So yummy and has a good amount of protein.

—Arugula salad. I tossed arugula with a splash of @getgraza olive oil, a squeeze of lemon, salt and pepper. It added suchhh a nice flavor.

Deconstructed Baked Potato Bowl

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

This Deconstructed Baked Potato Bowl is for those of you craving Southern comfort food but still want to be healthy. At first glance this bowl may look unhealthy, but it’s made from whole foods plant-based ingredients!

Baked Potato Bowl Essentials

This bowl features all the ingredients you’d get by deconstructing a loaded baked potato, with a healthy twist of course. In this bowl is:

  • Mashed Potatoes. Packed with fiber and keeps you full for hours.
  • Crispy Tofu. High protein & adds a flavorful crunch.
  • Black Beans. Protein & fiber.
  • Green Peas. Healthy digestion. 
  • Corn. Healthy digestion. 
  • Jalapeño. Nutrient dense & spicy.
  • Shredded Vegan Cheese. There are no incredible benefits per se, but the vegan cheese adds such a delicious flavor. Here are my favorite vegan cheese brands:
amazon violife shredded cheese
$30Violife Mozzarella Shreds
(Amazon)
amazon miyokos shredded cheese
$75 / 8-packMiyokos Shredded Cheese
(Amazon)
amazon Parmela Creamery Mozzarella
$5Parmela Creamery Mozzarella
(Amazon)

If you want to replace any of the ingredients or make it even more loaded, try:

  • Seitan. If you’re not a tofu fan and can handle gluten, replace the crispy tofu with seitan “chick’n”. I typically buy boxed seitan (in a similar container as tofu) and pan fry it with veggie broth and umami bouillon.
Franklin Farms Seitan amazon
$6Franklin Farms Seitan
(Amazon)
Vital Wheat Gluten amazon
$10Vital Wheat Gluten
(Amazon)
Upton's Naturals Chorizo Seitan amazon
$5Upton's Naturals Chorizo Seitan
(Amazon)
  • Tempeh Bacon. If you’d prefer bacon over crispy tofu or seitan, tempeh is going to be your best bet.
lightlife original tempeh amazon
$3.30Lightlife Original Tempeh
(Amazon)
Lightlight Smoky Bacon Tempeh amazon
$5.50Lightlight "Smoky Bacon" Tempeh
(Amazon)
Tofurkey Treehouse Tempeh safeway
$3Tofurkey Treehouse Tempeh
(Safeway)
  • Sour Cream. The mashed potatoes are extremely creamy, but if you want more cream with a little tang, add vegan sour cream. To find my vegan sour cream recipe, head to my GIANT WHITE BEAN CHILI post.

BBQ Sauce

Finding a good BBQ sauce is key in this recipe. The BBQ sauce brings it all together and really makes it feel like you’re eating an authentic home cooked Southern meal. Here are some of my favorite brands of BBQ sauce:

Primal Kitchen Classic BBQ Sauce amazon
$17.50 / 2-packPrimal Kitchen Classic BBQ Sauce
(Amazon)
The New Primal Smoky BBQ thrive market
$6.30The New Primal Smoky BBQ
(Thrive Market)
Jack Daniel's Sweet & Spicy BBQ Sauce amazon
$15Jack Daniel's Sweet & Spicy BBQ Sauce
(Amazon)

Bread Crumbs

For the crispy tofu, you will need breadcrumbs to act as the crisp. You can totally just use nutritional yeast and opt out of breadcrumbs, but there are some really great gluten-free options I love:

Longeve Panko Breadless Crumbs amazon
$8Longeve Panko Breadless Crumbs
(Amazon)
Longeve Plain Breadless Crumbs amazon
$8Longeve Plain Breadless Crumbs
(Amazon)
Cauli Crunch amazon
$20 / 2-packCauli Crunch
