Easy Meal Prep Idea
We are always on board with a recipe that is great for dinner and then makes easy leftovers for lunch. These collard green wraps are an easy one that you can enjoy for a light dinner, and then pack up the leftovers for lunch at work the next day. Alternatively, you could also just make them for lunches. Since collard greens are pretty substantial and more hearty than other greens, you can roll them up the night before and they’ll still taste fresh and delicious for lunch the next day. You can also just pack the ingredients and put it all together when you are ready to eat lunch. Either way, these are a new favorite!
The Sprouts – Are They Paleo??
You’re right, we added some bean sprouts on top. And yes, technically bean sprouts are from a legume. However, they are pretty harmless, but add such a nice little crunch. If you follow the strictest of Paleo lifestyles, then feel free to omit the bean sprouts or use a different vegetable sprout. We just personally appreciate the crunch! And if you want to read more about why they are harmless, check out this post from Mark Sisson.
Make It Whole30 Compliant
If you are making your collard green wraps Whole30 compliant, just make sure you skip the bean sprouts and use a different veggie sprout or micro greens instead. In addition, make sure your protein is compliant. We used squeaky clean deli meat for these wraps, but you could also use leftover turkey, chicken or I bet steak would be great as well.
The Spread – Flavor Booster
The spread used to add a pop of flavor to these collard green wraps is a must! It’s super easy to make in a food processor and adds SO MUCH flavor and texture to these wraps. You might even find yourself putting it on everything else you eat for the rest of the week.
