- Cheese Options: Feel free to swap the reduced-fat cheese for a vegan cheese if you’re following a plant-based diet. Many brands now offer delicious plant-based cheese that melts well and can be used for these wraps.

Ingredients (Makes 2 crunchwraps):

- 2 large flour tortillas (for a lower point option, choose small whole wheat tortillas)
- 2 slices of reduced-fat cheese (like light American cheese or reduced-fat cheddar)
- 1/2 cup shredded lettuce
- 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
- 2-3 tablespoons sliced pickles (optional)
- 2 tablespoons ketchup or mustard (or a combo of both for flavor)
- 1/4 cup red onion slices (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- 1 teaspoon olive oil or cooking spray (for pan-frying)
Instructions:
- Cook the Veggie Burgers:
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the Boca veggie burgers according to the package instructions, usually around 3-4 minutes per side until golden and heated through. Set aside and cut into smaller pieces to fit inside the crunchwrap.
- Prepare the Crunchwrap Ingredients:
- While the veggie burgers are cooking, prepare your toppings. Wash and shred the lettuce, dice the tomatoes, and slice the pickles and onion if using. Also, prepare your cheese slices and sauce (ketchup or mustard).
- Assemble the Crunchwraps:
- Lay one large tortilla flat on a clean surface. In the center of the tortilla, layer the following:
- A piece of cooked veggie burger (cut into quarters or smaller pieces if needed).
- A slice of reduced-fat cheese.
- A generous spoonful of shredded lettuce.
- A few pieces of diced tomatoes, pickles, and onions (if using).
- A drizzle of ketchup or mustard (or both).
- Fold the edges of the tortilla inwards to create pleats, encasing the filling tightly. Make sure the fold is neat and holds the ingredients in place.

- Cook the Crunchwrap:
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray with cooking spray or add 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Carefully place the assembled crunchwrap seam-side down in the pan.
