LETTUCE WRAPS

 

 

Oriental Lettuce Wraps

dice small or grate:

carrots, celery, brocoli stalks, cauliflaur, mushrooms,

or any variety of veggies that you prefer. Toss with a good oyster

sauce or an organic tamari. Add fresh bean sprouts and toss. Spoon

veggies into fresh, washed lettuce leaves of your choice. Roll

cabbage roll style and enjoy. My children love these for lunches

and they are wonderful for an appetizer when serving a multi-course

meal.

 

Greek Lettuce Wraps

dice small:

tomatoes, cucmbers, onion, (a little smashed garlic)

toss with a good oil (I prefer extra virgin olive)a little lemon

juice, add fresh basil or any herbs that you prefer. Spoon veggies

into fresh, washed lettuce leaves. Add a few good olives and grated

firm tofu. Roll cabbage roll style and voila!! a greek roll.

 

Mexican Wraps

smash soaked beans of your choice. add a little cumin, chili powder,

garlic or whatever your preference.

dice small: tomatoes and add to beans.

Now be creative. Add some soft or firm tofu, peppers or whatever

your tastebuds would like. Roll in washed lettuce leaves.

 

As you can see these are simple and great for children to experiment

with. We have these quite often and never quite the same way. Have

fun!! Try new things!! You'll be amazed at just how talented you can

be when you learn to PLAY in the kitchen.
