wrap

You asked for 10 minute meals, so that’s what you get. And nope, we‘re not talking boring sandwiches or bread with butter. Very little time and very much flavour. That‘s what we’re talking. And there wraps definitely fit this category!

A soft wrap on the outside filled with all the deliciousness you could imagine. Soft, mashed avo, crunchy greens & veggies, slightly sweet and damn addicting honey chickpeas and asparagus and some tangy feta to top it all off. All of this goodness is wrapped and rolled up. And with every bite you get an explosion of flavors.

What‘s special about this dish?

It comes together super super quickly and still is packed with flavour. It‘s not like your normal wrap that doesn’t take long to make but also does not taste very exciting. This is quick and still contains so many different flavour, although there are not many ingredients needed. Plus, it is vegetarian (vegan except for the feta) and still super versatile.

Is this dish healthy?

Yes, it definitely is. It is packed with different nutrients of all categories. The wraps deliver us some good & comforting carbs so we‘ll have energy all throughout the afternoon, and when choosing a whole grain one, we‘re also getting some extra fibre for our digestion. Speaking of fibre, there‘s a bunch more of that in the cucumber, the greens, the asparagus and the avocado. And we also get a ton of vitamins therefrom.

Not to forget about the real star of the show; the chickpeas. Chickpeas are an amazing source of plant based protein and also fibre. They also make this dish really filling, and delicious. If you are not a fan of chickpeas, you can also try this recipe with tofu or even with chicken. And lastly, the feta. Feta cheese does not have a huge nutritional value but it comes with quite some protein and a lot of deliciousness!

How to make this dish?

As previously mentioned, this is super super easy. It essentially really only comes down to chopping the veggies and preparing the chickpeas. To make the peas, we only need to add them to a pan along with some olive oil, honey, lemon juice and some chopped up asparagus. We are then turning it onto medium heat and letting the honey caramelize. Since we are adding everything at once, nothing will burn or be more cooked through at the end.

For the veggies we only need to smash an avocado, slice up some cucumber, wash the greens, slice up some spring onions and crumble the feta. Yep, that‘s already it. All that’s now left to do is wrap it up.

Definitely meal-prep friendly!

This really is amazing for meal prep. You just wrap it up, pack it into a tupperware and then take it to work or to school or to home office. Whenever you want to eat it, you can just take it out and enjoy! It is perfectly filling and very easy to be carried with you!

I really hope that you‘ll enjoy this dish as much as we do and that you‘ll have an amazing time cooking!!

Sushiwhat? Sushi + Burrito = Sushirrito! Still no idea what this is supposed to be? Well, basically a sushi roll (like maki) just so giant that you roll it up like a burrito and can eat it holding in your hands. Pretty genius invention right? Sushi to-go basically.

Biting into this is like biting into soft (and sushi flavoured) rice, fried & salty peanut tofu, crunchy cucumber & aspragus, soft avocado and creamy sriracha sauce. An explosion of flavours in your mouth and it really is ultra delicious! Plus, it actually is not too difficult to make.

What is special about this dish?

First of all, it is vegan. Vegan sushi with tofu is not very traditional in Japan. Usually it is prepared with raw fish like salmon or tuna or with fresh veggies or fruits like avocado (yep, avocado is a fruit) and cucumber. Or sometimes tempura (vegan) vegetables or prawns. You see, nl tofu in here. Nevertheless this is not a reason for us not to add tofu into this dish.

And secondly, well a gigantic sushi wrap is not quite normal. Yeah, it kinda is like an ultra thick maki, just one you can take bites from. This shape is very untypical because you (obv) cannot eat this with chopsticks, at least it is a challenge. It is more like street-style, meal prep, on the go sushi. Still, is tastes at least as good!

Is this healthy?

Damn yep. The amazing thing about this is that you can add any veggies you like into these rolls. Whatever you think would taste good in combination with the tofu & rice. I love cucumber, asparagus, avocado and spring onions but you could also add sweet potato or carrots or whatever you love. Adding all these kinds of different veggies makes this really incredibly nutritious. And obviously, depending on which veggies you choose, you‘ll have different nutrients!

Besides the veggies we also have the tofu. Tofu is a great source of plant based protein and fibre. Together with the peanut sauce is also serves as a source of healthy and essential, unsaturated fat. Not to forget about the rice. This itself is not too nutrient dense, yet it provides many carbohydrates to keep you energized. If you also wanted some fibre and minerals, you could swap it for brown rice instead.
