  • 1/4 tsp chipotle powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 cup water

  1. Warm tortillas according to package instructions.

  2. Spread chipotle mayo on tortillas.

  3. Place 2 slices of eggplant bacon (use this Eggplant Bacon recipe) on one side of the tortilla, then top with remaining sandwich ingredients. Fold tortilla close and enjoy!

Note

My favorite corn tortillas are made by LaTortilla Factory. They're oil-free and contain a mix of corn and wheat. This makes them easy to fold or roll without breaking apart. They have both yellow and white corn varieties. I'm able to find them in Publix and Whole Foods, or you can order them from Amazon in packs of 8.
