Vegan Buffalo Chicken Wraps are spicy, tangy, and packed with flavor. Made with crispy tofu, tempeh, or vegan chick’n coated in buffalo sauce and wrapped with fresh veggies and creamy dressing, they’re the perfect plant-based meal for lunch, dinner, or meal prep.

Ingredients

  • 1 block extra-firm tofu, tempeh, or 2 cups vegan chick’n strips
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/3 cup buffalo sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • 4 large flour tortillas or whole-wheat wraps
  • 2 cups romaine or iceberg lettuce, chopped
  • 1/2 cup carrot ribbons or shredded carrots
  • 1/2 cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1/4 cup vegan ranch or blue cheese dressing
  • Optional: fresh cilantro, lime wedges, extra buffalo sauce for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Press tofu for 15 minutes to remove excess moisture if using. Cut into strips or cubes. For tempeh, slice thinly.
  2. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add tofu or tempeh, then season with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 6–8 minutes until golden and crispy.
  3. Reduce heat and pour in buffalo sauce, tossing to coat evenly. Cook 1–2 minutes more until heated through.
  4. Warm tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.
  5. Assemble each wrap with lettuce, carrots, cucumber, onion, avocado, and buffalo-coated tofu or tempeh down the center.
  6. Drizzle with vegan ranch or blue cheese dressing and extra buffalo sauce if desired.
  7. Fold in the sides, roll up tightly, and slice in half. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Pressing tofu ensures a crispy texture that holds up in the wrap.
  • Use gluten-free tortillas or collard greens for a gluten-free version.
  • For less spice, mix buffalo sauce with vegan ranch or a touch of maple syrup.
  • Prepare components in advance but assemble wraps fresh to avoid sogginess.
  • Air-frying tofu creates extra crispiness with less oil.
