Recipe type: Main
Cuisine: Vegetarian
Serves: 4-6
Ingredients
  • 1 cup quinoa, cooked
  • 1 package extra firm tofu
  • ¼ of a small red cabbage
  • 1 bell pepper
  • 2 large carrots
  • 16-20 rice paper rolls
  • 1 cup of peanut sauce
  • Garnishes: lime wedges, peanuts
Instructions
  1. Cook quinoa according to package instructions in vegetable stock (about 15 minutes). Let cool completely.
  2. In the meantime, prepare tofu and vegetables. Drain tofu well and slice it into sticks. Slice red cabbage and bell pepper thinly, and slice carrots into matchsticks. Set aside.
  3. When ready to assemble, set up a station with a bowl of warm water and a plate.
  4. Dip each rice paper roll into the warm water for 10-15 seconds until almost fully soft, and then place it on the plate. Add quinoa, tofu, veggies, and peanut sauce as desired and roll it up like a burrito, tucking the edges inside.
  5. As you continue rolling your wraps, place a wet paper towel over the assembled ones so they don't dry out. Enjoy immediately for best flavor, garnished with lime wedges and peanuts. Serve with a side of peanut sauce (feel free to thin it with 1 tablespoon of hot water if it's too thick).
