Colorful + Quick Lunch Wrap

This loaded wrap is salty, creamy, tart and tangy, with a little sweet from the coconut wrapper. It makes a great quick lunch on the spot! I haven't tried making it advance and taking it with me on the go, and I'm not sure if that would work very well, though perhaps the collard and coconut wrap will provide a barrier to the nori getting soggy. it's pretty juicy though, so I'd make it and eat it right away.

If you're home for a quick work break, I find that this wrap balances well with perhaps hard-boiled or fried eggs on the side.

•Nori
Coconut Paleo Wrap
•1-2 collard green leaves, heavy stem cut out if desired,  steamed briefly till bright green, then cooled
•Kimchi kraut
•Sliced avocado
•Black olive paste or tapenade
•Parsley walnut pesto🌿
•Meyer lemon slices🍋

Start by laying out the nori sheet, then the coconut wrapper, then the steamed collards. Layer in the rest of the ingredients, then wrap up nice and tight for easy eating.

I love using nori and coconut wraps as wraps for all kinds combinations of dips, pestos, sprouts, lettuces, and more. See what you have on hand and experiment!
