Collard Green Wraps<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Today we had to stop working early at the farm (CSA project) due to rain, so I came home and made myself these delicious Collard Green Wraps. Collard greens make a great wrap — the leaves are smooth and pliable and the perfect size to roll up some delicious veggies or whatever you’d like.<\/p>\n

Here’s what I did for mine, mostly veggies from my CSA box this week:<\/p>\n

Prepare the filling. I used spinach, red onion, radish, carrot and avocado, everything Julienned.<\/p>\n

Wash and dry the collard greens and spread out however many leaves you’re planning to fill.<\/p>\n

Spread Sriracha Mayo on each leaf (Hampton Creek’s Just Mayo makes a good one for vegans), and add each of the items you’re putting in the wrap, Julienne strips going lengthwise.\u00a0Be sure you fill from the stem to the end of the leaf. The Hampton Creek Sriracha Mayo comes in a squirt container, so you can also just squirt a little on top of the filling rather than spread on the leaf.<\/p>\n

Roll as tightly as possible. Secure with a couple of toothpicks if desired, but this probably isn’t be necessary. \u00a0Cut on the diagonal into 2-3″ pieces. Arrange on a plate, eat and enjoy.<\/p>\n

Addendum: Now these were so good that I had to make more the next day! I used several different kinds of greens in theses, onion, avocado, carrot, tomato and some beautiful radishes along with the Hampton Creek Sriracha Mayo:<\/p>\n
