Collard Wrap, Sample Ingredients

- Roasted fennel bulb, quartered

- Green onions
- Feta cheese
Instructions
Avocado Crema
- Place all ingredients in a food processor (or use a large bowl and an immersion blender) and blend, being sure to scrape down the sides as you go. Because this sauce is avocado-centric, it’s best to make it fresh and use within 3 hours or it may begin to brown.
Collard Wrap
- To successfully roll your collard greens, you will need to devein the leaf, by cutting out about half of the rigid stem. (You can also blanch the leaves for very easier rolling.)
- On a clean workstation, lay out your de-veined collard with the spliced end facing you. Overlap the cut ends slightly to close the gap and smear a bit of your dipping sauce down the center of the leaf, to help keep things together.
- Next, carefully pile your desired fillings in a small pile towards the center of the leaf. The trick to an easy roll? Don’t overfill!
- Roll like a burrito, folding the loose end facing you over the filling first, then the sides, then roll. Cut, dip, enjoy!
