I’ve been all about self-care lately. Growing little baby girl inside me has offered the space to reflect and take time to care for my body deeply. I want to make the perfect little home for her and that starts with taking the best care of myself. Daily naps, exercising, beauty + skin treatments, and an endless supply of yummy nutritious food.
Philosophie Babe, Amrit-Sadhan from Body Bliss Life created this amazing green recipe, which not only satisfies you, but also includes ingredients that help keep your body moving and glowing on the outside.
Coupling collard wraps with peppers, carrots, tempeh and mint leaves is a perfect lunch when you’re starting to feel a mid-day crash. I love reaching for extra veggies during the day as I’m usually bouncing from place to place and need all that extra fuel. Drizzled on top is a peanut sauce made of organic peanut butter, Green Dream Superfood + Protein Blend and Green Bee Honey. Philosophie Green Dream superfoods are made with chlorophyll, which is basically ingesting liquid gold; super good for your digestive system + body.
Gather This:
1 cup quinoa
1 bunch collard greens
1 red, yellow or orange bell pepper
2 carrots
2 handfuls fresh mint leaves
8 oz tempeh
2 T coconut amino acids
GREEN DREAM PEANUT SAUCE:
1/4 cup organic peanut butter
2 T toasted sesame oil
2 T rice wine vinegar
2 T coconut amino acids
1 tsp Green Bee Honey
1 tsp Green Dream Superfood + Protein Blend
1 clove of garlic, grated
1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
Do This:
Preheat your oven to 350.. Slice the tempeh into 1/4 inch slices and lie on a parchment lined cookie sheet. Drizzle with coconut amino acids and place in the oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden on the edges.
In a small bowl whisk together all the ingredients for the peanut sauce and set aside. If the peanut sauce is too thick for your liking, add a bit of filtered water.
Wash and dry the collard greens. Take a knife and carefully cut the stem off. Thinly slice the bell pepper and shred the carrots.
To assemble the rolls: lie the collard green out on a clean cutting board. Place a large spoonful of cooked quinoa, 2 sliced of tempeh, a few bell peppers, carrots and mint into the center of the leaf. Tuck both sides over the filling and roll
These can be made several days ahead of time and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. If you don’t like tempeh you could use tofu or leave it out completely.
