Pin A vibrant, plant-based twist on popular viral recipes, swapping traditional cheeses or meats with tofu and other vegan alternatives for a delicious, satisfying meal.
I first tried this vegan viral recipe remix when searching for a weeknight dinner that felt both exciting and nourishing. The fusion of roasted tofu, vibrant veggies, and a tangy tahini-yogurt sauce quickly made it a household favorite.
Ingredients
- Protein: 400 g extra-firm tofu pressed and cubed, 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
- Marinade: 3 tbsp soy sauce (or tamari for gluten free), 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tsp smoked paprika
- Vegetables: 1 red bell pepper diced, 1 zucchini diced, 1 small red onion sliced, 100 g cherry tomatoes halved
- Sauce: 120 ml unsweetened plant based yogurt, 1 tbsp tahini, 1 clove garlic minced, 1 tbsp lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste
- Serving: 4 whole wheat wraps or pita breads (use gluten free if needed), fresh parsley chopped
Instructions
- Prep the tofu and marinade:
- Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper. In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, lemon juice, and smoked paprika. Add tofu cubes and toss to coat. Marinate for 10 minutes.
- Roast tofu and vegetables:
- Arrange tofu and all chopped vegetables on the baking tray. Roast for 20<25 minutes turning once until tofu is golden and vegetables are tender.
- Make the sauce:
- While roasting, mix plant based yogurt, tahini, garlic, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
- Prepare breads and assemble:
- Warm wraps or pita breads. Fill each with roasted tofu and vegetables. Drizzle with tahini yogurt sauce and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve immediately.

Recipe Q&A
- → How do I ensure the tofu is crispy?
Pressing the tofu well to remove moisture and baking it at high heat helps achieve a firmer, crispier texture.
- → Can I make this dish gluten-free?
Yes, use gluten-free tamari instead of soy sauce and choose gluten-free wraps or pita breads to keep everything gluten-free.
- → What vegetables can I substitute?
You can swap in vegetables like eggplant, mushrooms, or broccoli—just keep the dice even for roasting.
- → How can I add more protein?
Replacing tofu with tempeh or chickpeas is a great way to vary protein sources while maintaining a plant-based focus.
- → What sides pair well?
Serve with a crisp green salad, pickled onions, or vegan-friendly Sauvignon Blanc for a well-rounded meal experience.
