These Collard Green Veggie Wraps are great for putting together lunch Meal Preps for the week. These are so delicious, healthy, and low carb!

I’ve been trying to plan ahead and do more meal prepping lately.

Sometimes I just feel like I can’t seem to get enough done during the week. There are days that go by so fast, sometimes I forget to eat lunch, or worse yet I just don’t have time to make lunch. For me being a total lover of food, skipping a meal is bad, very bad.

So on Sundays now I have been preparing lunches for the week, that way I have no excuse to skip a meal.

There is a little prep work to make these Collard Green Veggie Wraps, I call it a labor of love. <3

Once you have the Collard Greens blanched and the veggies chopped it’s really pretty easy to throw these together.

I was actually inspired to make these, because one day while I was on the go I stopped at my favorite health foods store to grab a few things and then grab a quick bite from their deli.

They had some pre made Collard Green Veggie wraps similar to this that I purchased. They were totally delicious, but I paid over $10 for one wrap cut in half! Yikes! I was like, ok I can totally make these at home and save some $$.

For each Collard Green I added some Spicy Hummus as a base.

Add Sprouts, Cabbage, Carrots, Cucumber, and Avocado evenly to each leaf. Don’t overfill or it’ll be hard to roll up.

 

Roll up each leaf like a burrito and slice in half.

Add them to individual lunch containers along with some Carrot Sticks and store them in the fridge for easy to grab lunches on the go!

    You know eating a variety of green vegetables are most important. These green wraps are amazing! What a delightful summer dish. Such a healthy meal. Since the collards are thick great for holding the other ingredients together, Thanks for this recipe. I might use it as a healthy appetizer for parties.
