Instructions
Bacon
- Whisk together all of the ingredients for the marinade in a shallow bowl.

- Dip each tofu slice into the marinade (or use a basting brush) and add the slices to an oiled frying pan on medium heat.
- Fry tofu slices for 3-4 minutes on each side until tofu is nice and crispy.
Assembling the Wrap
- Wash and chop lettuce.
- Wash and slice tomatoes
- Spread a helping of vegan mayonnaise on your tortilla.
- Add vegan tofu bacon, lettuce, tomato and a sprinkle of black pepper to the tortilla. Fold the edges of the tortilla inward then roll. Slice the BLT wrap in two and enjoy!
