It seems like only yesterday that I was using tofu for the first time!
And now I’m using tofu two days in a row? Just consider me a tofu expert. 
I’m totally kidding, but still I’m happy to be over my tofu intimidation.
If I had a nickel for every time I said tofu in those first few sentences…
Anyway, every Monday and Wednesday I have classes all day. So of course, I pack my lunch [in my handy dandy lunchbox] the night before. I like to be prepared!
Usually, my lunches involve tempeh wraps, apples, and larabars…nothing too exciting, yet all wholesome and delicious.
Last night I knew I wanted to incorporate the remaining tofu into my lunch. The question is: how the heck do you pack tofu to-go without ending up with a soggy lunch?
Well, make a wrap filling and pack all the ingredients separately of course. I got a few funny stares when I whipped out half of my kitchen to make a wrap in the middle of the library, but the outcome was well worth it!
Tofu n’ Hummus Sandwich Filling
*I didn’t set out to make this vegan, but it is. Added bonus?
- 1/2 block of tofu (drained/pressed/sliced—see method here)
- 1 heaping T. hummus
- Mustard (honey, regular, spicy…whatever you like)
- Nutritional Yeast
- Paprika
Simply add all the ingredients to a Tupperware and give it shake.
Cute snowman Tupperware is optional.
Simple and delicious. Seriously you guys, this doesn’t get any simpler!
I also packed chopped veggies to add to the wrap.
- Tomatoes
- Baby carrots
- Green pepper
I packed wayyy too many veggies, so I ate about half of them plain. I forgot how much I love raw green pepper!
I packed a large La Tortilla Factory whole wheat wrap to fill-up.
And—shocker—an apple and larabar rounded out the meal!
I am a total creature of habit sometimes!
Well after all this food talk, I am ready for some dinner! But first I’m going to hit the treadmill (5k is in less than 2 weeks).
Have a great night!

Are you a creature of habit, or do you prefer to change it up? With some things (like workouts) I love to switch it up, but when I find something that works (and I enjoy) I’m a total creature of habit!

Absolutely a plus that it's vegan! :D
I'm a total creature of habit! I eat a lot of the same foods routinely and rarely switch up my workout routine.
once i get my hands on some nutritional yeast- no DOUBT ill be making this! especially with my new tofu obsession!
Looks like a great lunch! I've never tried a mustard, nutritional yeast combo on "raw" tofu.
I'm definitely a creature of habit!!! Blogging has forced me to switch things up a bit, but there are still the meals that don't get on the blog because if they did, they'd be posted every single day! Your lunch looks delicious and I love your seasonal tupperware! :)
@TiffKey Good! :)
@Jessica@tastyandtrim Habits and routines just make life so much easier! I'm with you! :)
@movesnmunchies I'm obsessed with tofu now too! It's so yummy and VERSATILE!! :)
@mimiIt was a tasty combo! I even like the 'raw' tofu plain!
@eatspinrunrepeat Blogging has inpsired me to switch things up too! Although I still post a ton of my everyday meals (big bowls of veggies and hummus just never get old)!
Seasonal tupperware makes me happy! :)
This sounds so great! I'm making this tonight for part of my school lunch tomorrow; love all the healthy ingredients in here! Thanks girlie:)
