Ingredients
For the Wraps
- Collard green leaves (large and sturdy, for wrapping)
- 1 cucumber, thinly sliced into long strips
- 1 carrot, thinly sliced into long strips
- 1 bell pepper (red, yellow, or green), thinly sliced into long strips
- 1 avocado, thinly sliced
- 1 cup sprouts (e.g., alfalfa or broccoli sprouts)
For the Hummus
- 1 cup canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 2 tablespoons tahini
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Water (for thinning, if needed)
Instructions
1. Prepare the hummus: In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth. If the hummus is too thick, you can add a little water to reach your desired consistency. Adjust the seasoning as needed.
2. Wash and trim the collard green leaves, removing the tough stem in the center to make them easier to fold.
3. Lay a collard green leaf flat on a clean surface, and spread a generous spoonful of hummus along the center of the leaf.
4. Layer the cucumber, carrot, bell pepper, avocado slices, and sprouts on top of the hummus.
5. Carefully fold the sides of the collard green leaf over the fillings, then roll it up tightly, starting from the bottom, to create a wrap. You can secure it with toothpicks if needed.
6. Repeat this process with the remaining collard green leaves and fillings.
7. Slice each wrap in half diagonally for easier handling.
8. Serve your Raw Veggie and Hummus Wraps immediately, or you can wrap them in parchment paper or plastic wrap for on-the-go snacking.
These raw veggie wraps are not only healthy and delicious but also very customizable. You can add your favorite veggies or even some sliced avocado for creaminess. Enjoy this crunchy and nutrient-packed snack!
