Ingredients
Olive oil cooking spray
4 slices eggplant, about 1/2 inch thick
1 clove garlic, minced
4 oz. fresh spinach, stemmed and washed, or frozen spinach
Sea salt to taste
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 large flatbreads
2 red lettuce leaves
2 oz. smoked tofu, sliced
1 small roasted red pepper, sliced
1 plum tomato, sliced lengthwise
Herb Mustard:
1/4 cup (2 oz) Dijon mustard
1 tsp. minced shallots
1 tsp. chopped fresh rosemary, thyme or basil
1/2 tsp. cracked black pepper
Methods/steps
In a small bowl, combine all ingredients except for the Herb Mustard. Set aside. Spray a stovetop grill pan with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Spray eggplant slices with cooking spray and grill until tender, about 5 minutes per side and set aside. Spray a large sauté pan with cooking spray and place over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until soft, about 2 minutes. Add spinach and cook until it wilts, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and let cool slightly. Squeeze out excess water. Place a flatbread on a work surface and spread with Herb Mustard. Lay lettuce leaf on top, followed by half of the eggplant, spinach, tofu, pepper and tomato slices. Roll up tightly. Repeat with the remaining flatbread and fillings. Slice each wrap in half.
