What’s So Great About Collard Greens?

Along with being the perfect host to our veggie packed wraps, collard greens are also insanely good for us.

They’re an amazing source of Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin K, calcium, iron, magnesium and more! When selecting collard greens for this wrap recipe, you want to try and choose the ones with the largest leaves to make them easier to wrap.

What’s In These Collard Green Wraps?

To make a truly delicious collard green wrap, the filling is what matters most. I love to amp up the flavor of my collard green wraps with hot sauce, nutritional yeast and hummus to tip them over the edge of deliciousness. You also want lots of delicious crunchy veggies as well. The best part is you can use whichever veggie you have on hand to make this recipe.

Here’s exactly what I put in mine:

  • Roasted Red Pepper Hummus (any of your favorite hummus’ will do. We have a great oil free hummus recipe here)
  • Red Cabbage (gives it a nice crunch)
  • Broccoli sprouts (insanely good for you and adds a nice bitterness)
  • Ribboned carrots
  • Red bell pepper
  • Tomato
  • Crushed peanuts (these are optional for my nut free followers)
  • Hot sauce (also optional)
  • A little sprinkle of salt

How Do You Wrap Collard Greens?

Wrapping collard greens is quite easy as long as you select a bunch with really large leaves.

You want to wrap them just like you would a burrito, folding in the sides with the stems, then slowly rolling until you have a nice firm wrap shape. You can even slice these collard green wraps in half to enjoy like a traditional veggie filled tortilla.
