Ingredients

  • 6 collard green leaves
  • 12 Tbsp store-bought Hummus (about 2 Tbsp per collard wrap)
  • 2 cups (cooked) brown rice (about 3 Tbsp per collard wrap)
  • 1 cup purple cabbage thinly sliced
  • 1 red bell peppers thinly sliced
  • 1 cucumber thinly sliced
  • big handful mint or Thai basil
  • sriracha *optional; for extra spicy kick

Spicy Peanut Sauce

  • 1/4 cup peanut butter (I prefer chunky but smooth also works; can be subbed with tahini)
  • 2-3 Tbsp hot water
  • 1 Tbsp lime juice
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 1 inch ginger minced
  • 1 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 Tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 Tbsp sriracha (if you don't like it spicy, use only 1 tsp)
  • 1 Tbsp cilantro finely chopped (optional)

Instructions

  • Make Spicy Peanut Sauce. In a medium bowl, mix together the sauce ingredients until smooth. Set aside.
  • Prep collard leaf. Wash and dry the collard leaves thoroughly. Cut off the stems. Flip the leaves so the dark green side is facing down. Using a sharp knife, carefully trim the large part of the stem so that it lies flat.
  • Assemble. Assemble the collard wrap like a burrito. Add a thick layer of hummus first, so everything else will stick to it. Add brown rice, vegetables, and finally, the spicy peanut sauce.
  • Fold into a burrito. Wrap into a burrito, as tightly as possible, but be careful not to break the leaves. Grab the bottom long edge of the collard green and wrap over the vegetables. Tuck both sides in and keep rolling until you finish with a fat, burrito-looking shape.
  • Cut in half and enjoy. Cut the collard wrap in half, like a burrito. Enjoy immediately, making sure to dip with additional peanut sauce!

Notes

Tips:
  • Make Spicy Peanut Sauce ahead of time. The peanut sauce can be made in advance. When mixing the sauce together, make sure to add hot water to loosen the thick peanut butter.
  • Assemble right before eating. Vegan Collard Wraps taste best when assembled right before eating. Don't make in advance and store in the fridge to eat later.
