Happy Wrapping

I love romaine lettuce. It’s soooo crunchy and can be used in many different ways. One of my favorites is to use it as a wrap for other yummy food. In the photo above, I had zucchini hummus, shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, and avocado. Wrap it all up and there you go! You have a quick and easy meal.
Another favorite is the walnut meat tacos. Be sure to try those babies…they will knock your socks off! In that recipe, I made it as a salad, but you can also wrap them in romaine leaves. Side note…those are my “stand by” recipes for salsa and guacamole. They’re amazing. And that cashew “sour cream” could be used on just about anything.
And lastly, on a variation of the recipe above, comes probably the fastest raw meal around…salsa and guacamole in a romaine leaf. So tasty and satisfying!
Happy Wrapping!

I wrap everything in lettuce. So good. My favorite is hummus, cucumber, dill, tomatoes and carrots….or avacado and hot hot salsa!

zucchini hummus? yum! What is in it? Can you use your vita mix (like reg hummus) or do you have to use a food processor?

That walnut taco recipe is awesome (kids like it, and so easy to make!)
I just don’t do very well on nuts these days- too heavy, I guess:)
