Collard Green Veggie Wraps

For those days when you need to recuperate from over-eating during the holidays with heavy meals (especially if you have been pounding that brisket, matzah ball soup, rich desserts, and of course multiple cups of wine because four just won't do the trick for you) collard green wraps are light and packed with veggies. I like the idea of using lettuce or collard greens as the "wrap" since it is nice to avoid carbs when possible. These are great for vegetarians, vegans, and just some green and veggie loving foodies.



Ingredients:

Collard Greens
Thinly sliced Red Cabbage
Avocado
Shredded Carrots
Thinly sliced Red Pepper
Thinly sliced Cucumber
Spinach leaves


Directions:

Slice and prep all of your veggies - you can always mix up what to place in your wrap whether it be with zucchini, sprouts, or the addition of kale.



Layer each type of veggie in the center of the collard green leaf. Remember not to overstuff the wrap!



Then like a burrito, roll up the leaf to create your veggie wrap.
Enjoy your wrap with tahini, hummus, soy sauce, or any other dipping sauce of your liking!
