Welcome to my new series one handed, this is episode 1, chipotle beefy folded wraps, and some good news! I am going to be exclusively posting the recipes for this entire series RIGHT HERE!
As a new parent, dinner time can be very over stimulating. Finding something for us to eat is usually an after thought so I came up with a bunch of recipes that you, the parents can eat and actually enjoy!
Ingredients:
1 package of farmboy vegan beefy bites, thawed
1/2 can chipotle peppers in adobo
2 lemons, juiced
2 garlic cloves
1/4 cup cashews
1/4 cup water
1 tbsp veg oil
vegan shredded cheese
iceberg lettuce
tomato, diced
cilantro
vegan sour cream, i used homemade cashew cream
hot sauce, whichever one is your favourite
4 extra large ‘burrito’ size flour tortillas
Method:
In a blender, combine the chipotle peppers, lemon juice, garlic cloves, cashews and water. Blend until very smooth and bright orange!
In a large bowl, add the beef and the marinade. Let sit for as long as you can. Perfect for prepping this on the weekend and to eat throughout the week! If you don’t have time, that’s fine too. Evenly coat and heat a cast iron pan over medium heat.
Add 1 tbsp oil to the cast iron and add the beef. Cook without moving the beef so it can get a nice sear. Flip and cook until slightly charred. It’s not real beef, so it doesn’t actually take that long to cook. Maybe 5 minutes. Remove and roughly slice up.
Wash that same cast iron pan and preheat over medium low heat.
Build your wraps by slicing the wrap halfway length wise, use my video for reference. With the wrap laying flat, place the beef on a quarter of the wrap, top with vegan cheese. Place some iceberg lettuce, tomato and cilantro on the next quarter, and finally place your sour cream and hot sauce on the third quarter. Fold the empty quarter on top of the beef, the beef on top of the lettuce mix, and the lettuce mix on top of the hot sauce.
Place the folded wrap on the hot pan and cook until slightly charred, flip and cook on the other side. Once both sides are crispy and golden, remove and dig in!
So good!
