Cobb Salad Collard Green Wrap! A great alternative to tortillas or bread! Loaded with vitamins A, C and K, I hope you give this collard green wrap a try!
I started really eating collard greens back in 2016. In fact, here’s my first ever collard greens wrap YouTube video. Collard greens are available year-round, but the peak time to buy is January through April. As a cool-season crop, they are one of the hardiest of all vegetables. They tolerate frosts and freezes better than many other plants in the leafy greens category.
If you are trying to eat healthier like me, collard green wraps can become your new best friend. I enjoy them raw because of the crisp and crunchy bite but you can also steam them. Remove the stem, fill them with protein, vegetables and whatever your fave dressing, condiments or even with hummus. These are so easy to make and super versatile.
Cobb Salad Collard Green Wrap
I had some leftover homemade Thousand Island dressing and had just made some bacon as well and decided to make a Cobb salad collard green wrap! This was so delicious! I also sometimes will just stuff with turkey deli meat, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, mayo and mustard. The best! If you try this, please let me know what you think!
