In recent years, air frying has revolutionized the way we approach cooking, offering a method that combines the satisfying crunch of fried foods with the health-conscious benefits of reduced fats and calories. Gone are the days of deep-frying, which often leaves food greasy and laden with excess oil. Instead, air frying utilizes rapid air circulation to cook food evenly, resulting in crispy textures without the added calories. This method is perfect for crafting wholesome meals, such as the Savory Garlic Herb Air Fryer Tofu Wraps, which promise to tantalize your taste buds while keeping health at the forefront.

Ingredients
  

1 block (14 oz) firm tofu, drained and pressed

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon dried basil

1 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

4 whole wheat wraps or tortillas

1 cup fresh spinach leaves

1 medium cucumber, thinly sliced

1 medium tomato, diced

1 avocado, sliced

1/4 cup hummus or your favorite dressing

Instructions
 

Prep the Tofu: Start by draining the tofu and pressing it firmly between paper towels or a clean kitchen cloth to eliminate excess moisture. Cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes for even cooking.

    Marinate the Tofu: In a mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, basil, paprika, salt, and pepper. Add the tofu cubes to the bowl, gently tossing to ensure each piece is well coated with the marinade. Allow the tofu to marinate for at least 15 minutes, letting the flavors infuse.

      Air Fry the Tofu: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the marinated tofu cubes in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to fry them in batches. Cook for 15-18 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even crisping, until the tofu is beautifully golden and crispy.

        Prepare the Wraps: While the tofu is air frying, lay out the whole wheat wraps or tortillas on a clean surface. Spread a generous layer of hummus or your choice of dressing across each wrap, reaching the edges for added flavor in every bite.

          Layer the Fillings: On top of the hummus, evenly layer the fresh spinach leaves, diced tomatoes, thinly sliced cucumbers, and avocado slices across each wrap.

            Add the Tofu: Once the tofu is cooked to perfection, carefully add a portion of the crispy tofu cubes onto each wrap, distributing them evenly.

              Wrap It Up: To assemble, fold in the sides of each wrap, then roll tightly from the bottom to the top, ensuring all the delicious fillings stay securely inside.

                Toast (Optional): For an extra crunchy texture, place the assembled wraps back in the air fryer for an additional 2-3 minutes, until lightly toasted and warmed through.

                  Serve: Slice the wraps in half for easier handling and serve them warm, with extra hummus or your favorite dressing on the side for dipping!
