Instructions
- Prepare tofu and marinade:

Recipe FAQ
- → Can I replace tofu with another protein?
Absolutely! Tempeh or chickpeas work well and can be roasted the same way for a similar texture and flavor balance.
- → Is the sauce dairy-free?
Yes, the sauce uses unsweetened plant-based yogurt and tahini to create a creamy, tangy finish without dairy.
- → What vegetables can I substitute?
Feel free to use mushrooms, broccoli, carrots, or any favorite vegetables for roasting, adjusting cooking time as needed.
- → How do I make this gluten-free?
Use gluten-free wraps or pita breads and swap tamari for soy sauce to keep the dish completely gluten-free.
- → Can I prepare the components in advance?
Yes. Marinate and roast tofu and vegetables ahead, then assemble wraps when ready to eat for maximum freshness.
- → What pairs well as a drink with this meal?
A crisp vegan-certified Sauvignon Blanc complements the savory spices and creamy sauce nicely.
