I’ve been making a lot of wraps and sandwiches so far this summer, and I have a feeling this Vegan Curried Tofu Wrap is going to stay on rotation! I look for any excuse to add yellow curry powder to my food and the flavor goes so well in these fresh, plant based wraps. They’re easy to make and perfect for lunch or dinner.
Why You’ll Love These Curried Tofu Wraps!
- Great for lunch – I love this recipe because you can make the curry tofu salad ahead of time and then just assemble your wrap each morning before leaving the house. These can also be made into sandwiches!
- Easy to make – This curried tofu salad can be prepared in about 15 minutes and you don’t even need to turn on the oven! Throw it in a tortilla with some veggies and you have an easy lunch.
- Full of flavor – Yellow curry powder is one of my favorite ingredients because it adds so much flavor to everything it is added to! It’s a warm and cozy spice that goes well with creamy ingredients, like the mayo.
Curry Tofu Wrap Recipe Ingredients
- Tofu – I pretty much always use the Trader Joe’s Super Firm, Extra Protein Tofu these days. It has amazing texture for the recipes I use it in, and you only need to pat it dry, no pressing needed. If you can’t find that, just try to press as much liquid out of your extra firm tofu as you can.
- Mayo + Dijon – I like to use vegan mayo, but any kind can be used. You could also add in some plain Greek yogurt instead if you prefer.
- Spices – I usually use the McCormick brand of yellow curry powder because it has a great flavor without being very spicy. Just use your favorite kind. I also like to add some cumin and garlic powder.
- Grapes – Grapes add sweetness and a nice pop! Dried cranberries or cherries could also be used. If you don’t like sweet and savory together, feel free to leave them out.
- Celery – Celery is crunchy and fresh and always goes well with a salad like this.
- Onion – I like to use red onion but white or yellow will also work. Green onions can be added as well if you like.
- Walnuts – Toasted walnuts, pecans or almonds add a nice crunch to this curried tofu salad. Nuts can be omitted if needed.
- Parsley – I always like to add fresh herbs to my recipes and parsley goes great in this one. Any kind of fresh herb will work though.
- Tortillas – I used burrito sized flour tortillas as my wraps, but any kind of wrap will work. You could also stuff the filling into a pita or make a sandwich with it.
- Extras – I like to add a few lettuce leaves or a handful of spring mix to these wraps, but it’s totally optional. You could also add fresh tomato slices.
How To Make Easy Curried Tofu Wraps
- To a large size bowl, add the mayo, dijon, curry powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, pepper and lemon juice. Mix sauce until all ingredients are mixed well together.
- Use your hands to crumble up the block of tofu, into small bite sized pieces and add the tofu to the bowl with the sauce. Mix until tofu is completely coated and then mix in the grapes, celery, onion, walnuts and parsley.
- I reccomend warming your wrap for a few seconds in a pan or in the microwave so it’s easier to fold up. Place your wrap on a flat surface and add a few leaves of lettuce to the middle of the wrap. Top with a couple of big spoonfuls of the curry tofu salad and then carefully fold up your wrap.
- I like to fold the sides in and then fold the wrap up as tightly as I can. You can also sear, seam side down, in a hot pan for a few minutes to fully secure your wrap. Cut wrap in half and enjoy!
Recipe Frequently Asked Questions
- Make these wraps vegan by using a vegan mayo substitute.
- Make this recipe gluten free by using a gluten free wrap, pita or sandwich bread.
- How many servings does this recipe make? This recipe makes about 4 good sized wraps. I also like to bulk mine up with extra lettuce or other veggies.
- Can these wraps be made ahead of time? They can, but I reccomend making just the curried tofu salad ahead of time and then preparing your wrap close to eating time. Wraps can have a tendency to get soggy if made too far in advance, but a few hours should be fine.
- How long does leftover tofu salad last? If stored in an air-tight container in the refrigerator, leftovers should last about 4-5 days.

This was great – even though I didn’t have all the ingredients listed. (Yes, I’m going to be one of THOSE people.) Didn’t have any nuts, so I left them out, and didn’t have grapes so I substituted dried currants. Yellow onion for red onion. It tastes amazing!

Wondering if there’s something wonky about the nutrition facts? It says 14 services, but I’m thinking you meant 4, since it makes 4 wraps. And is this the count with or without the tortilla?
