Veggie Coconut Wraps

Ingredients:

  • For the Wraps:
    • 1 pack of coconut wraps (available at health food stores or online)
  • For the Filling:
    • 1 large avocado, sliced
    • 1 medium cucumber, julienned
    • 1 large carrot, julienned
    • 1 red bell pepper, julienned
    • 1 cup purple cabbage, thinly sliced
    • 1 cup baby spinach
    • Fresh cilantro leaves (optional)
    • Fresh mint leaves (optional)
    • 1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional)
  • For the Sauce:
    • 1/4 cup peanut butter or almond butter
    • 2 tbsp soy sauce or tamari (for gluten-free)
    • 1 tbsp lime juice
    • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
    • 1 clove garlic, minced
    • 1-2 tbsp warm water (to thin out the sauce)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Sauce:
    • In a small bowl, mix the peanut or almond butter, soy sauce, lime juice, honey, and minced garlic.
    • Add warm water gradually until you reach your desired consistency. The sauce should be smooth and pourable.
  2. Prepare the Vegetables:
    • Wash and julienne the cucumber, carrot, and bell pepper.
    • Thinly slice the purple cabbage.
    • Slice the avocado just before assembling to prevent browning.
    • Rinse and pat dry the spinach leaves.
  3. Assemble the Wraps:
    • Lay a coconut wrap flat on a clean surface or plate.
    • Spread a small amount of sauce down the center of the wrap.
    • Layer the avocado slices, cucumber, carrot, bell pepper, purple cabbage, spinach, cilantro, and mint on top of the sauce.
    • Sprinkle with shredded coconut if using.
    • Drizzle a little more sauce on top of the veggies if desired.
  4. Roll the Wraps:
    • Carefully roll the coconut wrap tightly, folding in the sides as you go to secure the filling.
    • Slice the wrap in half if desired for easier handling.
  5. Serve:
    • Serve the veggie coconut wraps immediately with extra dipping sauce on the side.

Tips:

  • Customization: Feel free to add or substitute any veggies or greens you like. Other great additions include bean sprouts, sliced radishes, or lettuce.
  • Protein Boost: Add some protein such as tofu, tempeh, or chickpeas for a more filling wrap.
  • Storage: If making ahead, keep the assembled wraps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a day. Add avocado just before serving to prevent browning.

Enjoy your fresh and flavorful veggie coconut wraps!
