Italian Wrap

If you looking for an alternative to tofu like me - for some reason I am not a fan of TOFU, I think it's the texture I don't like! A good replacement is Tempeh! If you love wraps this one will blow your socks off!!!!

Ingredient List
3 tbsp avocado oil, divided
1 (8 oz) package organic tempeh, cut into 24 pieces
1 cup water
3 tbs lemon juice, divided
1/2 cup tomato sauce
2 tsp dried Italian seasoning, divided
1 clove garlic minced
2 cups kale - washed and chopped in pieces
2 cups baby spinach - washed and chopped in pieces
1 cucumber diced in large pieces
1 cup cherry tomatoes
1/4 cup diced sweet white onion
4 ounces shredded Almond Cheese
4 slices Lavash Flatbread
Salt and Pepper to taste

Heat 2 tbs avocado oil over med-high heat, add tempeh strips and brown on both sides for about 5 to 6 minutes.  Reduce heat, add 1 cup water and 2 tbs lemon juice - simmer on medium heat for about 10 minutes turning once.

Mix 1/2 cup tomato sauce, diced garlic and 1 teaspoon dried Italian Seasoning in a small bowl - set aside

Combine 2 cups kale, 2 cups spinach, 1 cup diced cucumber. 1 cup cherry tomatoes, 1/4 cup diced onions in a large blow - drizzle remaining 1 tbsp of lemon juice and avocado oil over mixture - gently massage with hands until all vegetables are covered and kale begins to soften.  Sprinkle salt and pepper to taste

Spread 2 tsp of tomato mixture and 3/4 cup of vegetables on each piece of flatbread, add 6 strips of tempeh and 1 oz of almond cheese then roll each flatbread - enjoy! I calculated the Vegetable and Tempeh ingredients from a calorie counter on the Internet - you will need to add 149 calories for each slice of flatbread - so total calories for 1 wrap is 372
