Preparation Steps
1
Crumble the tofu with a fork or dice it into small cubes. Cut the onion and bell pepper into thin strips, and mince the garlic.
2
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onion and garlic for 2-3 minutes, until fragrant.
3
Add the tofu, bell pepper, smoked paprika, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes, until the tofu is lightly browned.
4
Stir in the BBQ sauce and cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Remove from heat.
5
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place a tortilla wrap on the grill and spread half of the tofu mixture evenly over it.
6
Sprinkle with the grated vegan cheese, then top with another tortilla wrap. Gently press down with a spatula while grilling.
7
Grill the quesadilla for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
8
Remove from the grill, let it cool for a minute, then cut into triangles. Sprinkle with fresh coriander, if desired.
9
Serve with fresh guacamole, vegan sour cream, or extra BBQ sauce.
