Ingredients & Directions
- Collard Greens (I made 4)
-Start by cutting off the end (bottom of stem) of the collard green.
-Pre boil water then set it medium low.
-Place collard green leaf (1 by 1) in water for around 10 seconds per side. **(SEE PHOTO BELOW!)**
-When collard green is a little softer, place on cutting board and “ sliver” off the inside of stem (as shown in photo) this makes it easier to wrap! **(SEE PHOTO BELOW!)**
Filling that I used for 4 wraps was
- -1/2 cup dry farro cooked (2 servings) – OR use any whole grain that YOU like!
- -1 can BPA FREE 398ml black beans – OR any legume that YOU like!
- -1/2 large purple onion
- -4 garlic gloves
- -1 cup chopped fresh parsley (typically would be cilantro but I only had parsley)
- -Dash of pink salt to taste
Mix all of the “filling” together, then place even amounts on to each collard green and start wrapping!
On the side add some salsa & avocado
*Note – you can add the salsa and avocado inside of the collard green, but I just prefer to have it out, as I pre make these for days in advance & don’t want the avocado to sit inside for days!*
