The next time you want a simple, nutritious, and delicious light lunch or dinner, ditch regular tortillas for collard green wraps! They're fun, versatile, budget-friendly, healthy, and delicious!
Preheat oven to 450 (Tip: insert empty baking sheet into oven beforehand to heat up to create a crispier potato). Dice potatoes into small cubes, toss with olive oil, lay onto a heated baking sheet and top with salt and pepper. Bake 20 minutes or until crispy.
On the stove over medium heat, toss chickpeas and TVP with enough water to coat the bottom of a small pan. Once TVP is activated (looks like taco meat) drain or burn off any excess water, and add cayenne, salt and pepper and heat for 3-4 minutes.
For the wrap, place collard greens in a large pan with an inch of water. Cover and steam over medium heat until wilted. Remove from heat, drain water and set softened wraps aside.
Once all components are ready, it's time to build the wraps. Divide the chickpea mixture between the two wraps followed by the diced potatoes and finally top with sriracha and/or your favorite vegan sandwich sauce. To roll the wraps, fold and tuck one of the long sides under the 'meat' then fold the two outer sides inwards, and roll the rest of the way.
Notes
Remove tough stem: It's super fibrous, hard to eat, AND makes it harder to roll the collard wraps. Slice off the ends, then shave what's left.
Don't overstuff the filling: Otherwise, you'll struggle to roll the collard greens wraps.
To seal: If they struggle to stay wrapped, a toothpick will help hold them together.
Experiment with fillings: Treat these collard green wraps like regular wheat wraps and mix and match the fillings as much as you'd like.
