    - - Freshly ground black pepper to taste

    Recipe



    1 In a small bowl, combine all ingredients for the Herb Mustard. Set aside.
    2 Spray a stovetop grill pan with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Spray eggplant slices with cooking spray and grill until tender, about 5 minutes per side. (The eggplant may also be cooked on an outdoor grill or under a broiler.) Set aside.
    3 Spray a large saut� pan with cooking spray and place over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until soft, about 2 minutes. Add spinach and cook until it wilts, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and let cool slightly. Squeeze out excess water.
    4 Place a flatbread on a work surface and spread with Herb Mustard. Lay lettuce leaf on top, followed by half of the eggplant, spinach, tofu, pepper and tomato slices. Roll up tightly. Repeat with the remaining flatbread and fillings. Slice each wrap in half.
