# Expert Advice:
01 -
- The grill char on the vegetables gives you that savory depth you didn't think vegan cooking could deliver.
- Everything comes together in under 30 minutes, which means this works for both lazy afternoons and nights when you're hungry right now.
- It's endlessly customizable—swap in whatever vegetables you have or what's calling to you from the market that day.
02 -
- Don't overcrowd the grill pan—vegetables need space to actually char, not steam in their own moisture, so work in batches if necessary.
- The avocado goes in last because it bruises easily and will turn brown if it sits too long, so slice it right before assembling.
- If your wrap is threatening to fall apart, it's not rolled tight enough—use a gentle but firm hand and don't skip tucking in those sides.
03 -
- Room-temperature wraps are sometimes easier to work with than hot ones because the tortilla has set slightly and won't tear as easily.
- If you're making these ahead, wrap each one tightly in parchment paper and they'll hold for several hours without getting soggy.
