Collard Wraps with Veggies & White Bean Spread
Collard leaves are bigger and stronger than most lettuce leaves so you can make burrito-like wraps. The creamy Great Northern Bean spread is similar to hummus so it's the perfect complement to the veggies.
In blender, food processor or smash with a fork, combine all ingredients for the spread except for olive oil/liquid.
Blend on low speed and slowly increase speed while adding in olive oil (or reserved liquid). Blend or smash until a smooth and creamy consistency is formed.
Add salt, pepper, lemon juice/vinegar to taste.
Prepare the bell peppers, carrots, and scallions.
Lay destemmed collard leaf flat on dish or cutting board.
Spread about 1/4 cup of the bean spread in the center of collard leaf.
Pile a small handful of veggies on top of the spread. Don't overstuff or you won't be able to roll the leaf.
Fold the edges of the collard toward the center and wrap it tightly like a burrito.
Cut in half and enjoy!
