Allergens and ingredient notes: Soy, wheat, milk. Nutrition assumes extra-firm tofu at approximately 17 g protein per 100 g; tofu and tortilla labels can differ substantially. Use plant yogurt for a dairy-free variation and recalculate nutrition.
Step by step
- Wrap tofu in a clean towel, place on a plate, and weigh lightly for 15 minutes to remove moisture. Meanwhile bring quinoa and water to a boil, cover, reduce to low, and simmer 15 minutes. Rest off heat, covered, for 5 minutes and fluff.
- Cut pressed tofu into ½-inch batons. Toss gently with paprika, chipotle, garlic powder, and salt. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Sear tofu in one layer for 10–14 minutes total, turning until several sides are golden. Work in batches if needed and divide the listed oil between batches.
- Warm the drained beans with the cooked quinoa in a saucepan over low heat until steaming. Stir yogurt and lime juice together. Warm tortillas briefly in a dry skillet so they fold without tearing.
- Divide yogurt sauce among tortillas, leaving a 2-inch border. Add one quarter each of quinoa-beans, tofu, cabbage, avocado, and cilantro. Fold the sides inward and roll tightly into 4 burrito-style wraps.
- Wipe out the tofu skillet. Toast wraps seam-side down over medium-low heat for 2–3 minutes, then turn and toast 1–2 minutes more. Cut in half to reveal the layers. Serve one whole wrap per person.
The Devotti twist: Crisp tofu edges and raw cabbage create two kinds of crunch inside a warm toasted wrap.
Make ahead and storage
Refrigerate tofu, quinoa, beans, and sauce separately within 2 hours for up to 3 days. Assemble with fresh cabbage and avocado at serving. Reheat cooked fillings to 165°F (74°C); assembled wraps soften in storage.
