      Sorry the recipes they give me are all very bad (i don’t think i can remember a single recipe they’ve given me where there isn’t too much/too little of something or just a lack of depth of flavor) so i kinda just freestyle everything and all i write down is what allergens i added

      To the best of my recollection for the chicken, it’s gardein brand “chik’n” which i steamed (you can probably skip this unless yours is also frozen) and chopped up before marinating because it has a kind of gross appearance and texture otherwise. I marinated in Franks (i think, whatever we get it’s vegan) buffalo sauce. That’s all the recipe called for but i hate buffalo sauce because it tastes how i imagine pepper spray to and idk i like flavor. So i added some garlic and onion powder and a little bit of soy sauce and roasted garlic i blended into it (i like garlic and pro tip garlic powder and roasted garlic have different flavors). I marinated it for a bit in the sauce before roasting until it just started to brown and had a consistency as close to cooked chicken as this stuff gets before cooling it down.

      The rest of the wrap is just fine chopped celery, romaine, and sliced cherry tomatoes tossed in a spicy aioli that was basically just vegan mayo with sriracha, chili powder, cayenne, paprika and onion and garlic powder added (and more roasted garlic)

      The green beans i just like made a vinaigrette with red wine vinegar and lemon juice, garlic/onion and i don’t remember what else honestly other than a biiiig squeeze of dijon mustard.

      To prep the green beans you just steam them for like 6-7 minutes and then cool them down in an ice bath to stop them cookinh, then toss in the dressing. Itd probably be better to dry them first though so the added water doesn’t fuck up the dressing

      The cauliflower i just roasted with garlic and onion powder and thyme and then cooled down and tossed in pesto. It’s actually the one thing i do have a recipe for and this recipe is very good.

      You can cut some basil and fill it in with spinach or arugula but idk why you’d want to unless you’re super cheap or hate basil

      I always make it with sunflower seeds because we don’t use nuts at my job
