Quick Facts
Yield: Serves 4
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients
For the Main Dish:
1 (14 oz) package veggie burger patties (store-bought or homemade, about 4 patties)
4 large flour tortillas (10-inch size works great)
1 cup shredded lettuce
1 medium tomato, thinly sliced
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
1 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
For the Sauce / Garnish:
1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt or sour cream
2 tbsp ketchup or your favorite burger sauce
1 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp garlic powder
Fresh cilantro or parsley (optional)
How I Make It
Step 1:
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet. While the pan warms up, get the veggie burger patties ready. If frozen, thaw slightly for a few minutes—this helps them cook evenly without burning the outside.
Step 2:
Place the patties in the hot skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, until they’re golden brown and crispy on the outside. You’ll want to hear that satisfying sizzle—that’s flavor building!
Step 3:
While the patties cook, in a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, ketchup, smoked paprika, and garlic powder to make a quick, tangy sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Set aside.
Step 4:
Once patties are ready, warm the tortillas briefly in a dry pan or microwave until pliable, so they wrap easily without cracking.
Step 5:
Assemble each wrap: spread a spoonful of the sauce down the center, add the burger patty, then layer with shredded lettuce, tomato slices, red onion, and a sprinkle of cheddar if using.
Step 6:
Roll up the wraps tightly. If you want to get fancy, you can toast them lightly in the pan for 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese and seal the wrap, but they’re delicious either way. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Variations & Tips
Swap out flour tortillas for whole wheat or spinach wraps for a different flavor and extra nutrients.
Add sliced avocado or pickles for creaminess and tang.
Use a spicy sriracha mayo instead of the yogurt sauce to kick it up a notch.
If you prefer vegan, just skip the cheese or use a plant-based alternative.
For homemade veggie patties, mix black beans, oats, and spices for a hearty filling.
Keep extra sauce on the side for dipping—because more sauce is always a win!
How I Like to Serve It
These wraps are perfect for a casual weeknight dinner when you want something fast but still satisfying. I love pairing them with a crisp side salad or some baked sweet potato fries. They also work great for a picnic or a quick lunch on busy days. Fresh, colorful, and so easy to eat on the go!
Notes
Store leftover veggie patties and sauce separately in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
To reheat, warm patties in a skillet over medium heat to keep them crispy, then assemble fresh.
Closing: These veggie burger wraps always save the day when I need a fast, flavorful dinner that feels homemade without the hassle.
