Check out Pinch of Yum for great step-by-step pictures that will show you how to create the wrap. It wasn't complicated, but her pictures really help.
In the crunchwraps I made I used her cashew queso recipe, refried beans, Doritos, bagged cabbage slaw, and her spicy sofritas tofu recipe.
Here are Pinch of Yum's instructions word for word:
Ingredients:
Spicy Sofritas Tofu
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 16 ounces firm tofu (press out some liquid first)
- 2 tablespoons taco seasoning (add about 1 teaspoon salt if it’s unsalted)
- 2 chipotle peppers, minced
- 1/2 cup salsa
- 1 cup cashews
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 can diced green chiles (or less, to taste)
- 1 teaspoon taco seasoning (add a pinch of salt if it’s unsalted)
- huge burrito-sized flour tortillas
- something crunchy: tostadas, tortilla chips or, dare I say, Doritos / Hot Cheetos (!!)
- roasted vegetables
- black beans
- avocados
- fresh stuff: tomatoes, cabbage slaw, lettuce, cilantro
- salsa
Sofritas Tofu: Heat oil over medium high heat in a large nonstick skillet. Add tofu and break apart into crumbles. Add taco seasoning, salt, chipotles, and salsa. Simmer for 5-10 minutes. Finish by letting everything sit without stirring for another 7-10+ minutes (adding oil to prevent sticking as needed) until you get some nice browned, almost-crunchy pieces.
Cashew Queso: Blend everything together aggressively until smooth!
Crunch Wrap Time: Lay a large tortilla on a flat surface. Layer: tofu, queso, crunchy stuff, and any other extras you want in there. Fold in the edges of the tortilla toward the center. Place in a hot oiled skillet, seam side down. Cook for a few minutes on each side until the exterior is firm, crunchy, and golden brown. Cut and serve!
FOR REGULAR SIZE CRUNCHWRAPS: Keep your filling amounts minimal. It is very common to run into the issue of overflow,
in which case, you can a) reduce filling amounts, b) fold it up as-is
and hope for the best – I found even half-closed crunchwraps still
grilled up nicely, c) break your tostadas into smaller pieces to allow
you more space, or d) make a MEGA CRUNCHWRAP. See next note.
FOR MEGA CRUNCHWRAPS (this is what I demonstrated in the post): Cut a few of the large flour tortillas so they are the same size as your tostadas. Then, once you’ve layered all ingredients, just place a small flour cutout tortilla on top and fold edges over that. This should buy you a little extra space for filling.
FOR MARINATED CABBAGE: I just tossed some thinly chopped cabbage with olive oil, salt, pepper, and vinegar to taste.
