Ingredients

  • 6 large collard green leaves
  • 1 cup hummus (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 carrot, julienned
  • 1 cucumber, sliced into thin strips
  • 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • Fresh herbs (such as cilantro or parsley)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: lemon juice for extra flavor

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Collard Greens: Remove the thick stem from each collard green leaf. To make them easier to roll, briefly blanch the leaves in boiling water for 1-2 minutes, then plunge into ice water to stop the cooking process.
  2. Spread the Hummus: Lay a collard green leaf flat on a clean surface. Spread a generous layer of hummus over the leaf, leaving about an inch from the edges.
  3. Add the Fillings: Layer the julienned carrots, cucumber strips, bell pepper slices, and avocado on top of the hummus. Sprinkle fresh herbs and season with salt and pepper. If desired, drizzle with lemon juice.
  4. Roll It Up: Starting from the bottom of the leaf, roll it tightly like a burrito, tucking in the sides as you go to secure the fillings inside.
  5. Repeat: Continue with the remaining collard green leaves and fillings. Cut each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for later.
