So, there's like one vegan friendly place in Alaska. What do I mean by "vegan-friendly"? Well, for me it means that there are at least three options that are clearly marked as vegan. There is regrettably, only one place that I know of within 60 miles of my home. Sad face. It's a little place in Anchorage that I'd heard a lot about but had never been to. Well, last week I finally got to go! My favorite thing I tried was their veggie wrap. I thought I'd try to recreate it myself (veggie wraps are so quick and easy) and below is my ~~imposter~~ veggie wrap! It's so delicious and healthy, filled with veggies, greek hummus and protein-packed tempeh! I hope you enjoy it!

High Protein Vegan Veggie Wrap

Inspired by my favorite wrap from a local restaurant

Makes 1 large wrap

1 8 oz. block of tempeh (use 1/4 per wrap)
1 tsp. olive oil
1 large (burrito size) flour tortilla
1/8-1/4 cup of greek style hummus (or your favorite)
1 handful of clover sprouts
3 Tbsp. black olives, sliced
2 Tbsp. tomatoes, chopped
1 Tbsp. yellow onion, minced
1 large lettuce leaf

Cut an 8 oz. block of tempeh into eight strips. You'll only need two per wrap. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan. Add the tempeh strips and allow to cook on one side until browned, about 5 minutes. Then flip, and brown on the other side. If you have time, you can marinade the tempeh in a ziplock bag with sesame oil and soy sauce for about an hour, but I was in a hurry so I just used plain tempeh. Once browned, remove from pan and set aside for later.

While in the pan, spread the hummus in the center of the tortilla. You want to strengthen the tortilla, but not to the point where it will get crispy and crack when wrapped up.
