Italian Herbed Tempeh and Hummus Wrap with Dill Sauce
Ingredients:
– 1 8-ounce block of tempeh, sliced into thin strips
– 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 4 whole wheat wraps or tortillas
– 1 cup hummus
– 1 cucumber, thinly sliced
– 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
– 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
Dill Sauce:
– 1/2 cup vegan mayonnaise
– 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
– 1 tablespoon lemon juice
– Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
1. In a shallow dish, combine the olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Add the tempeh slices to the dish, coating them evenly with the herb mixture. Let the tempeh marinate for about 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated tempeh slices to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and slightly crispy. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together the vegan mayonnaise, fresh dill, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to make the dill sauce.
4. To assemble the wraps, spread a generous amount of hummus on each whole wheat wrap or tortilla. Place a few slices of cucumber, red bell pepper, and red onion on top of the hummus.
5. Add a few strips of the cooked Italian herbed tempeh to the wraps. Drizzle the dill sauce over the tempeh.
6. Carefully fold in the sides of the wraps and then roll them tightly from the bottom up, ensuring the fillings are secured inside.
7. Repeat the process for the remaining wraps. Serve the wraps whole or slice them in half for a beautiful presentation.
