Paleo On-the-Go: Collard Greens Sandwich Wraps

Collard Greens Sandwich Wraps


This is my go to lunch recipe because it's easy, portable and you don't need to heat it up!

These Paleo sandwich wraps are also great to take with you on a hike or to the beach! 

This is my favorite version, but feel free to experiment with different sandwich combinations! 

Hands-On Time: 5-7 minutes per wrap

Ingredients (per wrap):

• Organic Collard Greens (x2 large leaves or x4 small leaves)

• Home-Made Paleo Mayonnaise (x1-2 TBSP)

• Organic, Pasture-Raised, Nitrate-Free, Sugar-Free Lunch Meat (x2-3 slices)

• Organic, Pasture-Raised, Nitrate-Free, Sugar-Free Bacon (x2-3 slices)

• Yee-Haw No Frills Dills Dill Pickles (x1, sliced thinly; or other brand that has no sugar or artificial ingredients)

• Organic Tomato (x1, sliced thinly)

• Organic Red Onion (x a couple of thin slices)

Method:

Lay down a piece of aluminum foil that is slightly bigger than the circumference of the collard greens leaves. 

Then lay down the same size piece of parchment paper onto the aluminum foil.

Cut off the excess stem from the bottom of the leaves with a knife, and then shave the remaining part of the stem from top to bottom so that it is level with the leaf.

Place the leaves with the veiny sides facing up onto the parchment paper, overlapping so that there are no gaps between the leaves:

Spread Paleo Mayonnaise onto the collard green leaves with a butter knife, and any other Paleo condiments you like.

Next, put two pieces of lunchmeat on top of the condiments:

Put your cooked bacon on top of the lunchmeat:

Place the sliced pickles on top of the bacon.

Add your tomato slices:

Finish it off with thinly sliced red onion:

To roll up the wrap, tuck the sides in first:

The roll it up like a burrito, starting from the end that's closest to you and roll away from your body:

Once you have the collards completely rolled up like a burrito, wrap it first in the parchment paper, folding in both ends and then roll it up again in the aluminum foil:

Store the sandwich wrap in the fridge for up 1-2 days.

Eat it like a burrito, opening the top and tearing away the parchment paper and aluminum foil as you go.

Enjoy a collard greens sandwich wrap on your next outing!
