Assembling
- Heat your tortillas via your preferred method. You can heat them in a frying pan, or stack them up, cover them in foil and bake them in the oven at 350°F (180°C) for around 15 minutes until heated through. Our latest preferred method is to heat them in our panini press.
- Add shredded lettuce followed by BBQ jackfruit, sliced avocado, red onion, a drizzle of vegan sour cream and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro.
- Serve with fresh lime wedges on the side.
