Spicy Asian Collard Green Wraps
The key to any wrap, in my mind, aside from the fillings, is the sauce! The sauce that you put inside the wrap and the dipping sauce! No one wants a wrap that’s bland, boring and tasteless. So, I made a peanut sauce that packs a punch.
I love using Korean hot pepper paste, gochujang, for added flavor and heat. A little goes a long way but if you love the stuff like me, or are feeling adventurous, go for that entire heaping tablespoonful! You’ll be glad you did!
The Peanut Sauce
And instead of using regular peanut butter, I used Peanut Butter and Co’s Mighty Nut new powdered peanut butters, the one loaded with flax and chia. You simply mix the powder with water and it tastes just like peanut butter. Only better.
I hope you give these wraps a try and check out my VIDEO! If you like it, please give me a thumbs up!
Spicy Asian Collard Green Wraps
Ingredients
For the spicy peanut sauce:
- 1/2 cup natural creamy peanut butter
- 2 to 3 tablespoons water + more if needed
- 1 heaping tablespoon Gochujang Korean hot pepper paste
- 1 to 2 teaspoons fresh minced garlic
- juice from 1/2 a lime + more if needed
- 1 to 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce start with one tablespoon
- 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 1 to 2 teaspoons sesame oil
For the noodles:
- 6 to 8 oz. sweet potato glass noodles
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 2 to 3 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
For the wraps:
- 5 to 6 collard green leafs Whole or sliced in half
- fresh green lettuce shredded
- red cabbage finely shredded
- carrots julienned
- red bell peppers thinly sliced
- Toothpicks to close if needed
Instructions
For the spicy peanut sauce:
- Using a small to medium sized mixing bowl, mix together the creamy peanut butter with the water until blended smooth. Mix in the gochujang, garlic, lime juice, soy sauce, hoisin sauce and sesame oil. Whisk together until smooth. Taste and adjust ingredients as needed.
For the noodles:
- Boil the noodles according to package instructions, usually for only 4 to 5 minutes. Drain, rinse and let cool slightly. Mix together with the sesame oil and soy sauce. Taste and adjust ingredients as needed.
For the wraps:
- Cut off the stem on the collard greens, then cut out the stem completely. You will be left with two pieces. (Refer to video to see how)
- To assemble: spread in the peanut sauce onto a collard green leaf, top with some seasoned noodles, and then top with the lettuce, shredded red cabbage, carrots and red bell peppers.
- Roll the wrap, starting from the bottom, going up. Secure close with a toothpick. Serve with the leftover peanut sauce and enjoy!

This looks absolutely delicious. I’ve never seen collard greens for sale here in Western Australia but I want to give this recipe a go with some sort of other cabbage leaf. Such a great, healthy take on wraps! The sauce looks divine too, I can imagine drizzling it over all sorts of deliciousness (tofu and rice with greens? Insert heart eyed emoji!) xxx

First off, thank you for this recipe! It looks like just what I want for my weekday lunches in the teacher’s lounge.

Thanks!
