Guest guest Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 Hello. I just found this group, but I have been a member of other healthy eating/Vegan/Vegetarian/Gluten Free groups for some time. When I find a super recipe, or make a new creation, I try to share it as much as possible. Here is one recipe I found in my Hometown (lousiville, KY) newspaper. I altered it to make it Vegan, and it turned out really well. I always use the real/fresh peanut butter available at the Grocery or Healthfood stores. Here is the recipe: Asian Veggie Wraps Dressing: 1 tbsp sugar 3 tbsp rice wine vinegar 1 tbsp peanut butter (fresh) 1/2 tsp. salt crushed red pepper flakes to taste 1/2 tsp. minced garlic (1 clove) Wraps: salt and pepper 1 cucumber, peeled and thinly sliced 4 cups boston lettuce or field greens 4 green onions 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro 8 8-10 inch flour tortillas Combine all dressing ingredients. Sprinkle cucumbers with salt and pepper. tear the lettuce. Trim the onions. Slice the onions on the diagonal. If you have a gas stove, wave the tortilla over flame on both sides to soften, stacking totillas as you go. If you do not have a gas stove, put a skillet over the burner set on medium high. Heat a tortilla in the ungreased skillet, flipping as it softens. Set aside and repeat with remaining tortillas, stcking as you go. Put a little peanut dresssing in the middle of the tortilla, and spread it around, leaving inch margin from the sides. Spread some lettuce on tortilla, then a few onion slices, some cilantro, amd some cucumber slices. Fold the bottom of the tortilla up over the filling, fold the sides in an inch or two, then roll up the tortilla to enclose the filling, pushing and prodding to keep the lettuce and other filling ingredients inside. If you are not serving the wraps immediately, wrap in plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate. Do you have some great recipes to share?
