Spicy, saucy, buffalo tofu wraps are filled with crispy breaded tofu, romaine lettuce, red onion, cherry tomatoes, and easy vegan ranch dressing.

There is something about a wrap that is incredibly satisfying. Perhaps it’s the way everything is flawlessly packaged in a deliciously floppy carb, also known as a tortilla. A buffalo tofu wrap happens to be our dream wrap. Every bite is a mouth-watering combination of creamy, crunchy, and saucy textures. Forget about your dream guy, we want to know about your dream wrap. Everyone wants a tall, dark, and handsome guy that is proactive about making a dinner reservation – it’s not that hard! But what do you want out of your dream wrap?! I think we’ll find out a lot more about you this way.

Ours begins with crispy buffalo tofu strips. These take about 45 minutes to make, no cap, but trust us they are easy peasy and so worth it. You can make them ahead of time or substitute any plant-based protein doused in hot sauce (more on that in the recipe details). We start by layering creamy vegan ranch dressing, crisp romaine lettuce, chopped cherry tomatoes, and sliced red onion before adding the crispy buffalo tofu strips. Pile on the ranch and extra hot sauce if you like to keep it spicy.

What You’ll Need for Buffalo Tofu Wraps

Flour tortilla: the vehicle of choice. Feel free to use your favorite brand of tortillas, we went with the 365 Organic Flour Tortillas, Burrito Size for easy wrapping.
Buffalo tofu: crispy, baked buffalo tofu strips is what makes this wrap stand out.
Romaine lettuce: fresh, thinly chopped romaine adds the perfect crunch.
Cherry tomatoes: sliced cherry tomatoes for a burst of flavor.
Red onion: adds some bite and pairs so well with spicy buffalo and cool ranch.
Easy vegan ranch: simple ranch dressing made from vegan mayo, fresh dill, apple cider vinegar, and lemon juice.

Tips and Tricks for Buffalo Tofu Wraps

Prepare the tofu and vegan ranch ahead of time for easy assembly. To reheat the tofu, heat it in a toaster oven or air-fryer before adding to the wrap.

Make sure your tortilla is large enough, we recommend a burrito size. If you substitute a gluten-free tortilla, try heating it in the microwave under a damp paper towel for 15-30 seconds first to soften it and make it easier to work with.

Pressing the wrap in a pan helps it stay together and provides the perfect crispy coating.

Serving Suggestions

For an easy lunch option, serve with your favorite chopped veggies, like cucumbers, carrots, or celery and extra ranch! You could throw in a bag of your favorite kettle cooked chips and sneak them into the wrap, as well.

For dinner, we like to serve the buffalo tofu wraps with a simple arugula salad or baked french fries.

Instructions

Buffalo Tofu:

Prepare the tofu: Press the tofu for 15 minutes.
Make vegan ‘buttermilk’: In a small bowl combine almond milk and apple cider vinegar. Whisk gently to combine.
Prepare the other dredging stations: Place the corn starch in a shallow bowl or plate. In a separate bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.
Cut the tofu and prepare the pan: Cut the block of tofu into 6 rectangles. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Dredge the tofu pieces: Dip each piece into the corn starch, then the ‘buttermilk’, and finally the breadcrumb mixture. You can use your fingers or a fork to gently press the breadcrumbs into the tofu so that they stick.
Bake the tofu: Bake the tofu for 30 minutes, flipping once halfway. Option to spray them with cooking oil on either side for extra crispiness.
Buffalo them: Pour the hot sauce or buffalo sauce in a shallow dish or bowl. Once the tofu is done cooking, use a fork to dunk each piece into the buffalo sauce. Option to return to the oven for another 5 minutes for an extra crisp.

Easy Vegan Ranch:

Combine the ingredients in a small bowl: Add the vegan mayo, dill, apple cider vinegar, and lemon juice to a bowl. Whisk to combine.

Buffalo Tofu Wraps:

Prepare all the ingredients: Follow the instructions above for prepping the buffalo tofu and easy vegan ranch. Wash and chop the romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and optional dill.
Assemble the wraps: Add a spoonful of easy vegan ranch to the tortilla. Use the back of the spoon to spread it out. Next add half the romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, and red onion. Layer on 2 pieces of buffalo tofu. Add another spoonful of easy vegan ranch and a sprinkle of dill, optional.
Roll the wrap: Begin rolling up the wrap and tuck in the sides as you do so. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the second wrap.
Optional press: In a non-stick pan on medium heat, place both wraps with the overlapping side down. Use a panini press or the bottom of a pot to gently press on the wraps. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the tortilla is golden brown.
Cut and serve: Cut each wrap in half and enjoy with extra easy vegan ranch and buffalo sauce.

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.

Notes

Substitute dried oregano for the Italian seasoning in the buffalo tofu.

Substitute 1 teaspoon of dried dill for the 1 tablespoon of fresh dill in easy vegan ranch.

If you don’t have apple cider vinegar and lemon juice, either one will do, just double it.

For the wraps, you can substitute any plant-based protein of choice. We would recommend chick’n strips, patties, or nuggets. Follow the cooking instructions and then dunk in buffalo sauce.
