Seitan, Onion, Bell Pepper Wraps

Wraps are the fun version of sandwiches. Just heat up a tortilla, add some filling, and enjoy. This seitan, onion, bell pepper, and cheese filling makes a hearty vegetarian wrap.

Yield 8 wraps
Time 45 minutes
Tools
  • cookie sheet or large baking dish
  • aluminum foil
  • large bowl
  • wooden spoon
  • small saucepan
Ingredients
  • 5 c onions, thinly sliced
  • 5 c red and/or green peppers, seeded and cut into strips
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 T olive oil
  • 1½ t dried oregano
  • 1½ t salt
  • black pepper
  • 1½ c seitan, diced
  • 1½ c cheese or vegan cheese, grated (feta, smoked mozzarella, Monterey Jack, provolone, and cheddar are all good options)

Directions Preheat oven to 450. Oil the cookie sheet.

Combine onions, peppers, 2 T oil, and spices in a large bowl, then transfer to cookie sheet. Bake for about 30 minutes, stirring every 10, until tender and golden brown.
