Ingredients
- 200 grams Vegan chicken strips
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 small Zucchini, sliced
- 50 grams Spinach leaves
- 2 Whole grain tortilla wraps
- 3 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
- 100 grams Cashew nuts
- 240 milliliters Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions
Step 1
Start by preparing the cheesy sauce. In a blender, combine the cashew nuts, nutritional yeast, almond milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy, then set aside.
Step 2
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the vegan chicken strips and cook for about 5-7 minutes until they are heated through and slightly browned.
Step 3
Add the sliced red bell pepper and zucchini to the skillet with the vegan chicken. Sauté for another 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Step 4
Place the whole grain tortilla wraps on a flat surface. Spread a generous amount of the cheesy sauce over each wrap.
Step 5
Evenly distribute the spinach leaves over the sauce on each wrap.
Step 6
Top with the cooked vegan chicken and veggie mixture.
Step 7
Fold the sides of the wrap over the filling, then roll it up tightly.
Step 8
Slice each wrap into halves and serve immediately. For an extra touch, serve with additional cheesy sauce on the side.
