One of our all time summer favorites, we love embracing the local produce and offering ourselves a little treat of a healthy veggies wrapped up.
Note: We always keep our fresh collard stems in water until we are ready to eat.
First we prepare the Sunflower Cheese Paste and set it aside. Use the below ingredients and Vitamix all together:
- Sunflowers
- Nutritional yeast
- Salt
- Lemon
Next you simply cut up anything and everything you might want to have inside. We like to mix it up and if we are in a rush we typically just do mushrooms, spring onions, tomatoes and avocado. Above are a number of different kinds of varieties we can or do include on special occasions.
Then we pull out our freshly washed and well hydrated collards, cut the stems off the base and spread the Sunflower Cheese Paste, maybe a teaspoon or so.
Finally you add in the ingredients you want and then roll it up! We sometimes tie with lemongrass, but it is fine on its own too. These last for 3 days in the fridge, but are best the first day!
