Romaine Wraps
These lettuce tortillas are fun to make and to eat (a little messy, but worth it). The recipe below is only one of a zillion different combinations of toppings you could put on your wrap. Get crazy, and try something new. After all, this is a Daniel Fast, and with God, anything is possible, right?
Ingredients
- 4 romaine lettuce hearts or leaves
- 1/2 cup Hummus
- 1/4 cup cucumber slices, cut 1/4" thick & into half-moons
- 1/4 cup shredded carrots
- 1/4 cup zucchini, chopped
- 1/2 yellow bell pepper, julienned
Instructions
- Spread 2 tablespoons Hummus on each leaf. Top with cucumber, carrots, zucchini, and pepper. Eat like a taco, or roll up like a tortilla (depending up the size and shape of the leaf).
- Yield: 2 servings (about 2 stuffed leaves)
Notes
- Use bok choy leaves instead of romaine.
- Add sliced or diced avocado (everything tastes better with avocado!).

- Other topping ideas: artichokes, avocado, black beans, brown rice, broccoli, green peppers, mushrooms, olives, onions, red peppers, sunflower seeds, or tomatoes.
This is now a staple meal for me. I especially like it for lunches as it is filling and yet light for a mid-day meal. I did julienne the zucchini and cucumber as it was easier to eat like a taco with them all the same shape. Also, it’s amazing what a light sprinkle of kosher salt and black pepper does to your final creation… Yes, a new favorite for me and my husband!
