I used the Crispy breaded Chick'n strips instead because the others weren't available locally and substituted the Vegan Ranch for the Cucumber Raita recipe and it was amazing. Great stuff Chef Chad!
Charles - that sounds like a great variation on this recipe. So glad you enjoyed this. Having these strips on hand at home is essential for a quick meal for my kiddo as well. - Chad
I made these for my husband , and he loved buffal chicken sandwiches. So I decided to make a vegan version and tried this recipe and he loved it . He said it was better then actually chicken
Hi Dawn, In the photos, I see white wheat flour tortillas. However, any type of tortilla may be used--whole wheat, corn, or other types. And I don't have loyalty to a particular tortilla brand, so I don't have a recommendation to share with you. ~Eric
