Instagram/TikTok is flooded with this genius wrap hack. I’m not sure who started it.

It’s so simple: if your tortilla was a clock, start at the center and slice down to 6 o’clock. Put stuff in the four quadrants. Flip the bottom left-hand flap up, then fold two more times clockwise. Whatever you put into your wrap, this method holds everything inside. Eat as is, or give it a quick sear in an oiled cast iron pan, air fryer or waffle iron/panini press. If you slice it with a sharp knife, everything stays put.

Description

This tortilla wrap hack is great because it ensures that all of the fillings stay inside. This version is stuffed with vegan sausage and cheese, sautéed red onion, pizza sauce, mushrooms and oil-cured olives.


Ingredients

  • 4 vegan sausages, finely diced (Beyond Meat or Field Roast Italian both work)
  • 10 oz. brown mushrooms, sliced or minced
  • 1/2 red onion, chopped
  • pizza sauce
  • 1/4 cup chopped oil-cured olives (kalamata or black works too)
  • 4 handfuls of shredded white vegan cheese (chopped)
  • 4 tortillas
  • oil, for sautéing

Instructions

  1. Preheat a large cast iron pan over medium heat. Add some oil, then the vegan sausages and allow to cook through. Scrape the vegan sausages into a bowl.
  2. Add the mushrooms to the pan with a little more oil if needed. Allow to soften. Scrape into another bowl.
  3. Add the onions to the pan, with a little more oil if needed. Allow to soften. Scrape into another bowl.

Cut a slit from the center of the tortilla to 6 o’clock. Place the sauce, onions and olives between the 6 and 9 o’clock quadrant. Place the other ingredients as desired onto the tortilla. Fold it up and sear it in an oiled+hot pan. A lid helps to melt the vegan cheese.
