Vegetable Wraps

Ingredients

• 2 tbsp (30 ml) vegetable oil
• 2 medium onions, sliced
• 1/4 cup (60 ml) barbeque sauce
• 1 tsp (5 ml) pepper
• 2 cups (500 ml) broccoli
• 2 cups (500 ml) cauliflower
• 1 cup (250 ml) carrot, grated about 1 large
• 1 cup (250 ml) red cabbage, grated about 1/4 head
• 3 dill pickles, slivered
• 1/3 cup (75 ml) mayonnaise
• 1 tsp (5 ml) chile in adobo (optional)
• 1 head leafy green lettuce, washed and dried
• 6-10 inch (25 cm) whole wheat tortillas

Instructions

1. 1

   Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan, add the onions and sauté for about 10 minutes until soft and beginning to colour. Add the barbeque sauce and continue cooking until the sauce is absorbed and the onions are just beginning to stick to the pan. Add pepper. Set aside to cool.

2. 2

   Break up the broccoli and cauliflower into small pieces and blanch it in boiling water for a couple of minutes.

3. 3

   Plunge it into a bowl of cold water. Drain well and dry.

4. 4

   Mix together the mayonnaise with the chili in adobo in a small bowl.

5. 5

   Put all your prepped ingredients in bowls. Lay out a 10 inch (25 cm) piece of plastic wrap on your counter.

6. 6

   Toast one tortilla in a lightly oiled frying pan for a minute or two on each side. Let it cool slightly and lay it on the plastic wrap.

7. 7

   Assemble the wrap by spreading the tortilla with some of the mayonnaise and the onion mixture. Add a line of broccoli and cauliflower, a line of pickles, a line of grated carrot and red cabbage and top with lettuce.

8. 8

   Roll up the tortilla as tightly as you can, folding up the ends of the plastic wrap and making a nice tight roll. Don't worry about any tears in the tortilla, just carry on. You can always eat your mistakes later.

9. 9

   Proceed with the rest of the wraps.
