Why you’ll love this viral lettuce wrap recipe!
The idea for this recipe came from my friend Teri at No Crumbs Left. She posted a meat version of these caesar lettuce wraps that just looked SO DELICIOUS and I knew I needed to make my own meat-free version of it!
Today we’re using my super easy tofu “lunch meat” recipe in place of the chicken that Teri used. It’s so simple to throw together and I like to make a big batch on the weekends so that we have something on hand throughout the week to make sandwiches or wraps like this.
So here’s why you’ll LOVE THESE:
They’re light and healthy – the lettuce instead of bread makes these so light but the croutons and tofu make this a delicious and filling meal!
So easy to throw together – once the “lunch meat” is made, the wraps coming together in mere minutes! You can even make it ahead of time and pack it for work lunch.
Packed with plant-based protein – I absolutely love the tofu in these wraps but you could also swap it for whatever protein you prefer.
Easily customizable – Use whatever you want inside of your wraps!

Ingredients needed
The full list is down in the recipe card but let’s go over the main ingredients and substitutions!
Tofu Lunch “meat” – I really love this recipe and have made it many times! It’s great for meal prep to be able to throw together super simple lunches.
My chickpea salad would also be delicious in this recipe (although I would leave out the curry powder) or even my air-fryer chickpeas!
Pickled red onions – I used Teri’s delicious recipe to make these! To save time, you could also just use plain onions.
Caesar dressing – every time I share this recipe people always complain that caesar dressing has anchovies in it. However, there are lots of delicious vegetarian and vegan versions on the market now. My recommendations are in the recipe card!
Iceberg lettuce – I’ve tried this with other lettuces and they simple don’t work as well!
Simple croutons + parmesan cheese!
