Green Tortillas

Today for lunch I enjoyed some yummy burritos, but instead of tortillas, I used raw collard greens. If you've never tried this before, I highly recommend it. Collard greens are easy to wrap and roll, they have a mild flavor and a nice texture, and they are super nutritious. I filled these collard greens with a brown rice and black bean salad topped with chunks of avocado. They would also be really tasty with hummus and veggies, but really anything you can put in a tortilla would be great in these. I think collard green wraps would also make really pretty and unique appetizers. There is a good tutorial here on how to wrap them. The long and short of it is to use them as you would a regular tortilla; just lay a whole collard leaf flat, remove the stem, place whatever filling you are using in the middle, fold the sides in, and roll. Easy, tasty, and so good for you!
