This lovely wrap is a quick ‘n easy recipe we made many times at my husband’s raw-ish cafe in Brazil. It’s just SO easy, SO filling, and SO tasty! I’m making this one today, but because I’m out of truly raw almonds, I’m using sunflower seeds for the mayo. Easy enough!
INGREDIENTS
Collard greens (for wrappers)
Almond mayo (for dressing)
Chives, chopped
Cilantro, chopped
Avocado, cut in slivers
Cucumber, diced
Herbamare, to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
- Remove the spine from the collard greens if you’d like to, although I usually don’t bother to be honest! To remove, with the lighter green of the collard facing down, carefully use a paring knife to cut lengthwise from one side to the other without cutting through the leaf.
- Now face the dark green down. Use a spoon to put some almond mayo on the center of the leaf, then add some veggies, then add some Herbamare or sea salt if you like, to get some extra flavor in there.
- Wrap it up, and devour!

[...] This is a reeeeeally easy almond mayo of sorts. I make one about every 2-3 days and then just keep it in the fridge for sandwiches and wraps. (The wraps pictured here are my Basic Veggie Wraps.) [...]
Hi,
I am writing a CookBook and will have a chapter on Vegetarian Recipes, can I use some of your recipes and will put all your contact information, giving you all the credit. Great website!
I just saw this Stephanie. I don’t know how I missed it. I’d like to know a little more if the book’s not out yet — but I don’t see a reason why not.

I have this at least twice a week! It is. so. good! I can eat the mayo plain! Yummy!
Hiiii Jenny! That’s cool! I can eat it plain too — but something about having a wrap makes it feel so indulgent. Like I’m not eating super healthy or something! lol!

Yes! The only thing I changed is with the mayo… I add the juice of 2 limes instead of 1… I like the “stronger” lime taste… :-9 !
Nice — sounds like a great change — sometimes I like more lime in just about anything — it’s just so FRESH!
The Wrap looks very, very appetitizing. Hope to try it out today and will return to give a review. Thanks for sharing.
Looking forward to it!! Hope you enjoy it!
