Tossing the smoked tofu in cornstarch then pan-frying makes it super crispy. Drizzle with hot honey or your favorite hot sauce to spice it up a little.

Crispy Smoked Tofu & Coleslaw Wraps

Serves 4

Active Time: 20 minutes

Total Time: 20 minutes

3 tablespoons mayonnaise

3 tablespoons grapeseed or canola oil, divided

1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice, plus lemon wedges for serving

1/8 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground pepper

4 cups coleslaw mix

1 scallion, sliced

1 (6- to 8-ounce) package smoked tofu, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

1 tablespoon cornstarch

4 whole-wheat wraps

1. Whisk mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon oil, the lemon juice, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Add coleslaw mix and scallion, and toss to coat.

2. Toss tofu with cornstarch in a medium bowl. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tofu and cook, stirring occasionally, until crispy and browned, about 5 minutes. Serve the tofu and slaw in wraps, with lemon wedges, if desired.

Tasty tip: Smoked tofu adds a savory goodness to this wrap. If you can’t find the smoked variety, any seasoned baked tofu will do the trick.
