Buffalo Baked Tofu Wraps

It’s no secret that I love anything spicy or covered in hot sauce.  I have freely admit that many many times here.  I especially love the buffalo sauce flavor.  Even when I ate chicken I really only ever got buffalo wings for the sauce.  No lie.

So when I got this bottle of Buffalo Marinade in the mail from Foodbuzz as part of the tastemaker program I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it!

The marinade was great, but if you can’t find this specific brand, honestly you can use any brand or even make your own buffalo sauce to marinate in.  I’ve tried the Franks Red Hot brand of buffalo sauce and it’s fantastic as well!  And you’re especially lucky today because you’re also getting a ranch dressing recipe!

Buffalo Baked Tofu Wraps with Ranch Dressing (makes 4 wraps)
(Print this recipe!)

Ingredients:
1 package of extra firm tofu, pressed (I like the kind that comes already pressed- the Wildwood Organic is my fave)
1 bottle of your favorite buffalo sauce (you’ll only use about half of the bottle)
4 Whole wheat wraps of your choice
lettuce
ranch dressing (recipe follows)

Directions:
Slice your tofu into 8-10 slices (depending on how big your block of tofu is)

Place sliced tofu into a ziplock bag or Tupperware container and pour half the bottle of marinade in.

Let the tofu hang out for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spritz a baking sheet with nonstick spray.

Take tofu out of the marinade and shake off the excess marinade before placing each slice in the pan.

Place into oven and bake for 7-10 minutes on each side.

Slice or cube each plank of tofu so that it will fit better into your wrap.

To assemble your wraps, take your tortilla and top with lettuce, a drizzle of ranch dressing, your tofu slices or cubes, and top it off with a drizzle of the leftover buffalo sauce marinade (it’s okay- it’s not meat so you don’t have to worry about food poisoning from this. In fact, you can keep the leftover marinade in the fridge and reuse it!)

And here’s the ranch dressing recipe for your wraps! (you can use bottled if you want, but I promise this is WAY better!)

Ranch Dressing
(Print this recipe!)

Ingredients:
1 cup low-fat Vegenaise (or you can use yogurt)
1/3 cup non-dairy milk
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
big pinch of salt, to taste
big squeeze of lemon juice (about 1 Tablespoon)
1 teaspoon chopped fresh dill
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley

Directions:

Place all ingredients in blender and blend until smooth.

If you want your dressing a little thinner, add a little more non-dairy milk.  If you want it a little thicker, add a little more vegenaise.

I hope you enjoy this as much as I did!  And P.S. the leftover buffalo tofu makes a wicked salad- just toss on top of your fav salad with a few spoonful’s each of the ranch and the buffalo sauce!  NOM!

  1. this looks delicious! can’t wait to try

  2. Ok I have never had tofu like this and I really want to try it!! I never knew they had tofu already pressed. I dont have a tofu press which is why Ive never made it at home, but Ill look for the pre pressed kind now!!

  3. That tofu looks pretty good, but I just can’t do it.. I don’t know why. I’ve tried over and over and over… maybe one of these days..

  4. Oh wow! I’ve got to make these sooooon!!! I LOVE buffalo sauce and your idea to bake it with tofu is amazing! 🙂

    By the way, thanks so much for your comment on my blog! I’m loving your blog already 🙂

  5. I swear to goodness gracious that I can not cook tofu. But I said that about quinoa and it recently worked for me…..soooooo I need to try this! It looks yummy! 😉

    • Just keep trying until you find a method of cooking it that you like! It took me about a million tries to discover that I only like my tofu baked and chewy!

  6. I just came across your blog last night and am normally not one to comment much – but I have to say, this looks fabulous! This is so right up my alley – I cannot wait to try it! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
