Lightly breaded pieces of cauliflower are tossed in Buffalo sauce. Wrapped up with brown rice, spinach, and vegan cheese to make a delicious and easy lunch. Dip it in vegan ranch and pair with your favorite veggies!
If there’s two things you should know about me by now I like cauliflower and I like Buffalo sauce. I can’t help it they just make me happy and we should definitely be eating things that make us happy! I love wraps all times of the year but for some reason spring/summer screams wrap season for me. These wraps are simply made with just a few ingredients: brown rice, spinach, and vegan cheese. I like spinach in wraps because it holds up better and it doesn’t get as soggy as lettuce would for the next day.
To Press or Not To Press
There are two different kinds of people in this world: people who like their wraps pressed, and people who don’t. I love when my wraps are pressed. It helps to seal them up and if you are eating warm ingredients I think it just works better. Since we are using vegan cheese and want it to be melty I would suggest you press these. The cauliflower is lightly breaded and then baked in the oven. I didn’t want to bread the pieces individually with a heavy breading since it is a bit time consuming and a lot of effort for a wrap. i used store-bought vegan ranch but you can also make your own homemade one.
Make Rice Easier
To keep everything easy use a quick to prepare brown rice. I like the Trader Joe’s frozen brown rice or the Lotus Foods Heat & Eat rice pouches. It just makes the process much quicker instead of waiting 45 minutes for brown rice to cook. I used smaller medium sized flour tortillas but if you want to use bigger ones that will work great too.
Fitting Allergy Needs
Use any tortilla you like to fit your dietary and allergy needs. You can also use gluten free breadcrumbs for the cauliflower. If you want to add a little something extra to these try adding in corn, tomatoes or carrots. You will get 3 smaller wraps from this, which makes it great for prepping some easy lunches. Pair it with some veggies or fruit and chips for an easy lunch!

Buffalo Cauliflower Wraps
Ingredients
- ⅓ head of cauliflower about 7 ounces/200g, cut into small florets
- 3 tablespoons non-dairy milk unsweetened and unflavored
- 2 ½ tablespoons about 20g breadcrumbs
- ½ cup cooked brown rice divided
- ⅓ cup 37g vegan cheese shreds, divided
- 2 handfuls of spinach about 25g, divided
- 3 tablespoons Buffalo sauce divided
- 3 medium sized tortillas
- Vegan ranch optional for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C).
- Cut the cauliflower up into small florets, this will help it fit in the wrap better and place in a large bowl. Pour the nondairy milk over the top and toss to coat. Then sprinkle the breadcrumbs over top and shake to coat. Don’t worry if they aren’t perfectly coated it is just to make a light breading. Place on a lined baking sheet and bake for 18 minutes, or until crispy.
- Once the cauliflower is done take it out and add back into a bowl. Pour 2 tablespoons of buffalo sauce over and toss to coat.
- Then take a tortilla and spread about a teaspoon of Buffalo sauce on the bottom of the wrap. Add a third of the vegan cheese, brown rice, spinach, and cauliflower. Fold the two sides of the tortilla in, and then roll it up. Repeat with the remaining wraps.
- Once all the wraps are made you can either use a panini press or place them in a pan to crisp them up and help seal the wraps.
- Enjoy with some vegan ranch.

I made these this morning, and just ate one. They are DELICIOUS and EASY TO MAKE!!! The recipe calls for just the right amount of Buffalo Sauce; (the wraps I sometimes get at my local cafe are swimming in buffalo sauce, making them messy and way too spicy, in my opinion). I think the vegan cheese offers a nice ‘counterpoint’ to the spicy buffalo sauce. This recipe is a keeper!
