INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat the oven to 425F. Place a box grater over a parchment-lined baking tray then grate the tofu over the largest holes of the box grater to create shreds. Top the shreds with cornstarch, paprika, coriander, garlic powder, tamari and 1 tablespoon avocado oil. Toss to coat the tofu then spread it out in an even layer on the baking tray.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway.
- In a skillet, heat remaining tablespoon avocado oil over medium heat and add cabbage, onion, garlic powder, coriander, thyme, a generous pinch of salt and the oil. Saute until just softened and remove from heat.
- Meanwhile, combine the pepitas, parsley, mint, garlic, za’atar, sumac, lemon zest and juice, maple syrup, oil and a generous pinch of salt together in a bowl then stir to combine.
- Once the tofu is done baking, add it to the cabbage and stir in the pepita mixture.
- Warm the pita in the oven (or a dry skillet). Spread 2-3 tbsp of hummus on the pita then top with the tofu mixture. Fold it together into a wrap then enjoy.
