I just made RFRW's Spicy Thai Vegetable wraps for the second time and they are sooo good. I'm going to make my own version that doesn't take as long to make since I would never make the original version regularly. They are also very filling as they contain cashews and almond butter (about 1500 calories of those 2 ingredients, I cut the recipe in half but I would have eaten them all, I regret it now).
The collard green leaves at the grocery store were all wilted, so I look at other things that would do the job and found a local living boston lettuce sold in a plastic dome which still has it's roots and it worked great. I normally don't like using leaves for wraps but the boston lettuce does a good job, I will be buying for of it for this purpose.
I attached a picture of the rolls made with the boston lettuce leaves and the tamarind dipping sauce.
Once I invent my own easy/quick version I'll post it, and I'll make sure it tastes just as good.
