    Like it or not, back to school time is almost here. If you don't like it, then I've got a recipe that will make everything alright. And if you do like it then this recipe is only going to make back to school time even better! Get your lunchboxes ready by making these Vegan Tofu Caesar Wraps. You can make the tofu and dressing ahead of time so these wraps can be super quick to prepare, perfect for bringing to work, school, for an easy lunch or weeknight meal.

    Oh yeah, look at that gorgeous seasoned tofu and that creamy Caesar sauce.

    This sandwich is made using my all-time favourite Baked Tofu Bites (is there anything these tofu bites can't do)? I also use these bites in my hearty vegan tofu salad sandwich if you want another take on tofu sandwich deliciousness.

    The Caesar dressing takes less than 5 minutes to make and can also be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge. Then it's just a matter of adding veg and rolling them up. Prepare for crunchy, chewy, savoury, saucy, Ceasar-y deliciousness.

    To make vegan tofu Caesar wraps:

    These tofu bites taste like chicken and are amazing in a sandwich!

    Make my recipe for Baked Tofu Bites. You will only need to make ½ of the recipe to make these sandwiches which is equivalent to one block of tofu. But let me tell you that I never ever regret making extra tofu bites as they can be used everywhere- if they survive me eating most of them directly from the pan!

    These bites can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge until ready to use.

    Super simple to make vegan caesar dressing.

    Next, make the Caesar dressing. Simply add the ingredients to a small bowl or jar and combine. This too can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge until ready to assemble the wraps.

    For an oil-free version: Instead of the vegan mayonnaise-based Caesar dressing I have listed in this recipe use my Creamy Cashew Caesar Salad Dressing which is oil-free. If you make it ahead of time it will thicken up more in the fridge.

    Then when ready to assemble the sandwiches, fill a wrap with tofu bites, chopped romaine lettuce, chopped tomatoes, and the Caesar dressing. You can also add any additional veggies or toppings you like. Then roll it up like a burrito and enjoy your tofu Caesar wrap fresh, or pack it for lunch for later.

    If taking for lunch, I like to have all the ingredients prepped and ready to go in the fridge, then I assemble mine in the morning so that it stays fresh and doesn't get soggy. Roll up the wrap and then roll in wax paper, twisting the ends closed to seal it in. Pop it in your lunch bag and you're good to go.

    Bon appetegan!

      I needed cold lunch ideas and found this recipe. My husband and I enjoyed them and the best part is how I was able to prepare the tofu and ranch ahead and assemble when we were ready to eat. I put the tofu in the air fryer for 15 minutes at 380 degrees and it came out perfect! Thank you!

      I was a bit skeptical about the dressing because Caesar dressing has such a distinct flavor, but I was shocked. You really found that creamy, cheesy flavor, and I will be making it often!

      OMG, Sam, this was AMAZING! Made everything as written except I made the full Baked Tofu Bites recipe. Boy, am I glad I did because I was snacking on them all evening! The Caesar dressing was on point and combined with the Bites, juicy tomatoes, fresh lettuce, all wrapped in a whole wheat tortilla, it was PERFECTION! The kids loved them too and added a bit of shredded vegan mozz to theirs. Thank you for this recipe which is now in our family's dinner rotation!

      Delicious! Next time, I'll make the oil-free dressing because both me and my boyfriend felt a bit ill after eating 4 wraps each, but that's entirely own faults haha

      Super easy and convenient? Yes! Thanks for another fabulous recipe, Sam. You rock.
      I'm sad I only had one pack of tofu, because I could only make a half recipe of the baked tofu bites. I was trying them even before I baked them. Delicious.

      I love this! My 2 picky kids love it! It Is the packed lunch they ask for. The caesar sauce is perfection. The only thing I did different was a used your seitan tenders recipe instead of the tofu crumbles.
      I've made this 3 times in the last week

      OMG Sam, all four of us like these. That NEVER happens. Granted, my younger son ate his with your ranch dressing. That's still a win in my book. I'm glad I made the full recipe of tofu. There is enough for leftovers tomorrow. Thanks Sam!!!

      So, I'm not vegan (...yet), but I am trying to eat vegan food as often as I can, and recipes like this make it so easy to do! Honestly, I had my first vegan tofu caesar wrap half an hour ago, and as soon as I got back to my desk I was raving about it to my workmate! Sam, it was everything you said it would be - creamy, chewy, crispy, tangy and completely delish! The only problem is that I'll have to wait until tomorrow lunchtime for my next one!

      Made these tonight and loved them. I really like the nutritional yeast on the tofu bites. Best baked tofu I’ve made.

      Made these for supper tonight and we all enjoyed it very much. I made the recipe as written; I wouldn't change anything. We found just a little of the dressing spread on the tortilla shell was plenty. My daughters ladeled it on the first time and regretted the richness. 🙂
      Definitely a keeper--thank you, Sam!
